Brain Test Resource Report Resource Website |
Brain Test (RRID:SCR_006212) | Brain Test | topical portal, data or information resource, portal | A portal of online studies that encourage community participation to tackle the most challenging problems in neuropsychiatry, including attention-deficit / hyperactivity disorder, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder. Our approach is to engage the community and try to recruit tens of thousands of people to spend an hour of their time on our site. You folks will provide data in both brain tests and questionnaires, as well as DNA, and in return, we will provide some information about your brain and behavior. You will also be entered to win amazon.com gift cards. While large collaborative efforts were made in genetics in order to discover the secrets of the human genome, there are still many mysteries about the behaviors that are seen in complex neuropsychiatric syndromes and the underlying biology that gives rise to these behaviors. We know that it will require studying tens of thousands of people to begin to answer these questions. Having you, the public, as a research partner is the only way to achieve that kind of investment. This site will try to reach that goal, by combining high-throughput behavioral assessment using questionnaires and game-like cognitive tests. You provide the data and then we will provide information and feedback about why you should help us achieve our goals and how it benefits everyone in the world. We believe that through this online study, we can better understand memory and attention behaviors in the general population and their genetic basis, which will in turn allow us to better characterize how these behaviors go awry in people who suffer from mental illness. In the end, we hope this will provide better, more personalized treatment options, and ultimately prevention of these widespread and extremely debilitating brain diseases. We will use the data we collect to try to identify the genetic basis for memory and impulse control, for example. If we can achieve this goal, maybe we can then do more targeted research to understand how the biology goes awry in people who have problems with cognition, including memory and impulse control, like those diagnosed with ADHD, Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, and Autism Spectrum Disorders. By participating in our research, you can learn about mental illness and health and help researchers tackle these complex problems. We can''t do it without your help. | neuropsychiatry, brain, behavior, behavioral assessment, questionnaire, cognitive test, crowdsourcing, online study, memory, attention, brain disease, gene, exercise, genetics, mental disease, mental health, research project, research | has parent organization: University of California at Los Angeles; California; USA | Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder, Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, Mental disease, Normal, Autism Spectrum Disorder | NIMH ; NARSAD |

The new SCSORS project will provide the NIH access to the world''s supply of synthetic chemistry available for drug discovery. Once fully formed, SCSORS will provide a strategy for all NIH scientists to circulate requests for specific chemical samples among thousands, if not tens of thousands, of synthetic chemists at suppliers registered in the system. Sample quantities will range from milligram up to kilogram scale requests. Suppliers will be provided tools that allow them to review these requests and make proposals to NIH scientists for the synthesis of substances. It is expected that using the SCSORS strategy will allow the NIH to acquire chemical samples at less than 10% of the internal cost of synthesis while offering access to world wide chemical expertise and diversity. Once fully implemented, SCSORS will become an archive of commercially accessible custom chemistry products for pharmaceutical research. It is expected that this database of commercially accessible substances will grow to over 250 million substances in the coming two years. | compound, pharmaceutical, chemistry, drug discovery, research | NCI | nlx_146249 | SCR_005636 | SCSORS Project, Semi-Custom Synthesis On-line Request System | 2026-02-15 09:19:01 | 1 | ||||||||

Conditioned Taste Aversion: An Annotated Bibliography Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Conditioned Taste Aversion: An Annotated Bibliography (RRID:SCR_005953) | CTA | bibliography, data or information resource, database | A searchable, keyword-indexed bibliography on conditioned taste aversion learning, the avoidance of fluids and foods previously associated with the aversive effects of a variety of drugs. The database includes articles as early as 1951, and papers just published given that the database is ongoing and constantly updated. In the mid 1950''s, John Garcia and his colleagues at the Radiological Defense Laboratory at Hunters Point in San Francisco assessed the effects of ionizing radiation on a myriad of behaviors in the laboratory rat. One of their behavioral findings was that radiated rats avoided consumption of solutions that had been present during radiation, presumably due to the association of the taste of the solution with the aversive effects of the radiation. These results were published in Science and introduced to the literature the phenomenon of conditioned taste aversion learning (or the Garcia Effect). Subsequently, Garcia and his colleagues demonstrated that such learning appeared unique in a number of respects, including the fact that these aversions were acquired often in a single conditioning trial, selectively to gustatory stimuli and even when long delays were imposed between access to the solution and administration of the aversive agent. Together, these unique characteristics appeared to violate the basic tenets of traditional learning theory and along with a number of other behavioral phenomena (e.g., bird song learning, species-specific defense reactions, tonic immobility and schedule-induced polydipsia) introduced the concept of biological constraints on learning that forced a reconceptualization of the role evolution played in the acquisition of behavior (Garcia and Ervin, 1968; Revusky and Garcia, 1970; Rozin and Kalat, 1971). Although the initial investigations into conditioned taste aversion learning focused on these biological and evolutionary issues and their relation to learning, research in this area soon assessed the basic generality of the phenomenon, specifically, under what conditions such learning did or did not occur. With such research, a wide variety of gustatory stimuli were reported as effective conditioned stimuli and an extensive list of drugs with diverse consequences were reported as effective aversion-inducing agents. Aversions were established in a range of strains and species and under many experimental conditions. Research in this area continues to extend the conditions under which such learning occurs and to demonstrate its biological, neurochemical and anatomical substrates. Although the conditions under which aversion learning are reported to occur appear to generalize from the specific conditions under which they were originally reported, a number of factors including sex, age, training and testing procedures, deprivation level and drug history, all affect the rate of its acquisition and its terminal strength (Riley, 1998). In addition to these experimental demonstrations and assessments of generality, research on conditioned taste aversions has expanded to include investigations into its research and clinical applications (Braveman and Bronstein, 1985). In so doing, taste aversion learning has been applied to the characterization and classification of drug toxicity, the demonstration of the stimulus properties of abused drugs, the management of wildlife predation, the assessment of the etiology and treatment of cancer anorexia, the study of the biochemistry and molecular biology of learning, the etiology and control of alcohol use and abuse, the receptor characterization of the motivational effects of drugs, the occurrence of drug interactions, the characterization of drug withdrawal, the determination of taste psychophysics, the treatment of autoimmune diseases and the evaluation of the role of malaise in drug-induced satiety and drug-induced behavioral deficits. The speed with which aversions are acquired and the relative robustness of this preparation have made conditioned taste aversion learning a widely used, highly replicable and sensitive tool. In 1976, we published the first of three bibliographies on conditioned taste aversion learning. In this initial publication (see Riley and Baril, 1976), we listed and annotated 403 papers in this field. Subsequent lists published in 1977 (Riley and Clarke, 1977) and 1985 (Riley and Tuck, 1985) listed 632 and 1373 papers, respectively. Since that time, we have maintained a bibliography on taste aversion learning utilizing a variety of journal and on-line searches as well as benefiting from the generous contribution of preprints, reprints and pdf files from many colleagues. To date, the number of papers on conditioned taste aversion learning is approaching 3000. The present database lists these papers and provides a mechanism for searching the articles according to a number of search functions. Specifically, it was constructed to provide the reader access to these articles via a variety of search terms, including Author(s), Key Words, Date, Article Title and Journal. One can search for single or multiple items within any specific category. Further, one can search a single or combination of categories. The database is constantly being updated, and any feedback and suggestions are welcome and can be sent to CTALearning (at) american.edu. | taste aversion, learning, drug, aversive effect, literature, research, association, article, conditioned taste aversion, food avoidance | has parent organization: American University; Washington D.C.; USA | NIDA DA-04376 | PMID:15006479 | nif-0000-00085 | SCR_005953 | Conditioned Taste Aversion, Conditioned Taste Aversion Bibliography | 2026-02-15 09:19:06 | 3 | ||||||

Hereditary Disease Foundation (RRID:SCR_006088) | HDF | portal, training resource, funding resource, data or information resource, workshop, topical portal, disease-related portal | The Hereditary Disease Foundation (HDF) aims to cure genetic illness by supporting basic biomedical research. The HDF was started by Dr. Milton Wexler in 1968 when his wife was diagnosed with Huntington''s disease (HD). The Foundation uses a variety of strategies - workshops, grants, fellowships, and targeted research contracts - to solve the mysteries of genetic disease and develop new treatments and cures. Huntington''s disease is a fatal, dominantly inherited, genetic, neurological disorder causing involuntary movements, severe emotional disturbance and progressive cognitive loss over ten to twenty years. Each child of an affected parent has a 50% risk of inheriting HD, usually in the third or fourth decade of life, though children as young as two years and adults in their eighties may also develop symptoms. The Hereditary Disease Foundation uses Huntington''s disease as a model for hereditary disease research because it is triggered by a mutation of one single gene. Progress toward treatment or a cure could be instrumental in finding ways to treat other illnesses with more complex genetics, including Parkinson''s, Alzheimer''s, Lou Gehrig''s disease (ALS), depression, schizophrenia, and cancer. The Hereditary Disease Foundation has given over $50 million to support pioneering research in genetics, gene therapy, molecular and cell biology, cell survival and death, animal models, neurophysiology, neuropharmacology and other areas relevant to understanding inherited diseases. * Milton Wexler Workshop Program: A centerpiece of the Foundation is the interdisciplinary Workshop Program which sponsors Workshops held many times during the year. Milton Wexler began the Program to bring scientists together from different academic disciplines to brainstorm - without prepared lectures or slides - and explore new directions for research. They often share unpublished data. * Funding Opportunities ** The Basic Research Grants Program supports projects that contribute to identifying and understanding the fundamental defects in Huntington''s disease and related disorders. ** The John J. Wasmuth Postdoctoral Fellowships are named in honor of the late John Jacob Wasmuth, an essential member of the Huntington''s Disease Collaborative Research Group. Our hope is that those granted fellowships bearing his name will seek John''s level of imagination, rigor, creativity and spirit. ** The Lieberman Award is presented annually to a worthy scientist, thanks to the generosity of Harry Lieberman, a trustee of the Hereditary Disease Foundation. ** The Milton Wexler Postdoctoral Fellowship Award is named after the founder of the Hereditary Disease Foundation. The Hereditary Disease Foundation restricts this annual award to research highly relevant to curing Huntington''s disease. * Giving to the Hereditary Disease Foundation - Donations are accepted by check, credit card, etc. | genetics, gene therapy, molecular biology, cell biology, cell survival, cell death, animal model, neurophysiology, neuropharmacology, postdoctoral fellowship, award, grant, genetics, genetic disease, treatment, cure, research, postdoctoral, fellowship | Inherited disease, Huntington''s disease | nlx_151560 | SCR_006088 | Hereditary Disease Foundation (HDF) | 2026-02-15 09:19:09 | 2 |
