Collection of curated structural variation in the human genome. Catalogue of human genomic structural variation identified in healthy control samples for studies aiming to correlate genomic variation with phenotypic data. It is continuously updated with new data from peer reviewed research studies. The Database is no longer accepting direct submission of data as they are currently part of a collaboration with two new archival CNV databases at EBI and NCBI, called DGVa and dbVAR, respectively. One of the changes to DGV as part of this collaborative effort is that they will no longer be accepting direct submissions, but rather obtain the datasets from DGVa (short for DGV archive). This will ensure that the three databases are synchronized, and will allow for an official accessioning of variants.

Dataset in Bilingual exposure optimizes left-hemisphere dominance for selective attention processes in the developing brain by Arredondo, Su, Satterfield, & Kovelman (XX) Does early bilingual exposure alter the representations of cognitive processes in the developing brain? Theories of bilingual development have suggested that bilingual language switching might improve children''s executive function and foster the maturation of prefrontal brain regions that support higher cognition. To test this hypothesis, we used functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy to measure brain activity in Spanish-English bilingual and English-monolingual children during a visuo-spatial executive function task of attentional control (N=27, ages 7-13). Prior findings suggest that while young children start with bilateral activation for the task, it becomes right-lateralized with age (Konrad et al., 2005). Indeed monolinguals showed bilateral frontal activation, however young bilinguals showed greater activation in left language areas relative to right hemisphere and relative to monolinguals. The findings suggest that bilingual experience optimizes attention mechanisms in the language hemisphere, and highlight the importance of early experiences for neurodevelopmental plasticity of higher cognition. These data are made available from Ioulia Kovelman''s Language and Literacy Lab at University of Michigan and may be exported through the NIF Data Federation.

Data set of 48 healthy controls from a community (student) sample from Beijing Normal University in China with 3 resting state fMRI scans each. During the first scan participants were instructed to rest with their eyes closed. The second and third resting state scan were randomized between resting with eyes open versus eyes closed. In addition this dataset contains a 64-direction DTI scan for every participant. The following data are released for every participant: * 6-minute resting state fMRI scan (R-fMRI) * MPRAGE anatomical scan, defaced to protect patient confidentiality * 64-direction diffusion tensor imaging scan (2mm isotropic) * Demographic information and information on the counterbalancing of eyes open versus eyes closed.

The project has been collecting detailed panel data about the health, disability, demographic, family, socioeconomic, and behavioral risk-factors for mortality and healthy longevity of the oldest old, with a comparative sub-sample of younger elders, to examine the factors in healthy longevity. The baseline survey was conducted in 1998 and the follow-up surveys with replacement to compensate for deceased elders were conducted in 2000, 2002, 2005, and 2008, For each centenarian, one near-by octogenarian (aged 80-89) and one near-by nonagenarian (aged 90-99) of pre-designated age and sex were interviewed. Near-by is loosely defined it could be in the same village or street if available, or in the same town or in the same county or city. The idea was to have comparable numbers of male and female octogenarians and nonagenarians at each age from 80 to 99. In 2002, the study added a refresher sub-sample of 4,845 interviewees aged 65-79, and a sub-sample of 4,478 adult children (aged 35-65) of the elderly interviewees aged 65-110 in eight provinces Comparative study of intergenerational relationships in the context of rapid aging and healthy longevity between Mainland China and Taiwan is possible. At each wave, the longitudinal survivors were re-interviewed, and the deceased interviewees were replaced by additional participants. Data on mortality and health status before dying for the 12,136 elders aged 65-112 who died between the waves were collected in interviews with a close family member of the deceased. The study also included interviews and follow-ups with 4,478 elderly interviewees'''' children aged 35-65. * Dates of Study: 1998-2005 * Study Features: Longitudinal, International * Sample Size: ** 1998: 8,993 ** 2000: 11,199 ** 2002: 16,064 ** 2005: 14,923 Links * Data Archive, http://www.geri.duke.edu/china_study/CLHLS6.htm * ICPSR, http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/NACDA/studies/03891
