Brain Injury Alliance of Kentucky Resource Report Resource Website |
Brain Injury Alliance of Kentucky (RRID:SCR_004764) | BIAK | topical portal, patient-support portal, portal, data or information resource, disease-related portal | At Brain Injury Alliance of Kentucky (BIAK), a 501(c)(3) non-profit agency, our sole mission is to serve Kentucky citizens whose lives have been affected by brain injury. We do this through advocacy, education, prevention, research, service and support. BIAK links survivors of brain injury and their families to support from others with similar experience; provides them with education and information about living and coping with brain injury; assists them in locating resources for financial assistance; and seeks to connect people with sources of emotional support. BIAK began as an outgrowth of a Lexington area support group in the early 1980s. Family members, medical staff and others felt the need to expand the services and support to reach statewide. The state office was moved to Louisville and incorporated in 1986. BIAK now has offices and staff in Louisville and Lexington. BIAK seeks to share its philosophy, experience and skills with survivors, family members, students, caregivers, administrators, health professionals, legislators, the lay community and all those who desire to make a difference in the life of individuals with brain injuries and their families. At BIAK you will find information about brain injury. We define brain injury as any injury to the brain including injury received from a fall, a stroke, trauma, anoxia, infection, and tumors or other illnesses. Each year, a growing number of Kentucky citizens are affected by brain tumors. These may range from benign tumors to aggressive cancers. The Michael Quinlan Brain Tumor program recently joined BIAK to provide service and support to individuals and families who have been affected by brain tumors. There is always help available to you and your family. | traumatic brain injury, brain injury, human, brain, injury, brain tumor, tumor, concussion, cancer, one mind tbi | nlx_143896 | SCR_004764 | 2026-02-16 09:46:30 | 0 | ||||||||||

RLS Foundation Brain Bank Resource Report Resource Website |
RLS Foundation Brain Bank (RRID:SCR_005089) | RLS Foundation Brain Bank | brain bank, tissue bank, material resource, biomaterial supply resource | The Restless Legs Syndrome Foundation established the RLS Foundation Brain Bank at the Harvard Brain Tissue Resource Center in 2000. A part of the Harvard University medical system, the Center (housed at McLean Hospital and commonly referred to as The Brain Bank) began in 1978 as a centralized resource for the collection and distribution of human brain specimens for research and diagnostic studies. Over the years, hundreds of scientists from the nation''s top research and medical centers have requested tissue from The Brain Bank for their investigations. Because most of these studies can be carried out on a very small amount of tissue, each donated brain provides a large number of samples for many researchers. For comparative purposes, brain tissue is needed from healthy individuals, as well as from those who had RLS. When possible, a small portion of frozen tissue taken from each brain donated to the RLS Foundation Collection will be kept available to serve as a resource for future genetic testing. The process of donating your brain to RLS research is broken down into 5 steps. To view these steps, please read our Process Steps in RLS Brain Tissue Collection.

FlyAtlas: the Drosophila gene expression atlas Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
FlyAtlas: the Drosophila gene expression atlas (RRID:SCR_005032) | FlyAtlas | expression atlas, data or information resource, atlas | FlyAtlas gives you a quick answer to the question: where is my gene of interest expressed/enriched in the adult fly? For each gene and tissue, you''re given the mRNA SIGNAL (how abundant the mRNA is), the mRNA ENRICHMENT (compared to whole flies), and the Affymetrix PRESENT CALL (out of 4 arrays, how many times it was detectably expressed). The dataset so far comprises 44 Affymetrix Dros2 expression arrays, each mapping the expression of 18770 transcripts - corresponding to the vast majority of known Drosophila genes. The dataset thus contains over 822800 separate datapoints. This website is intended to make the data easily accessible and comprehensible to mere mortals. FlyAtlas provides the most comprehensive view yet of expression in multiple tissues of Drosophila melanogaster. Meta-analysis of the data shows that a significant fraction of the genome is expressed with great tissue specificity in the adult, demonstrating the need for the functional genomic community to embrace a wide range of functional phenotypes. Well-known developmental genes are often reused in surprising tissues in the adult, suggesting new functions. The homologs of many human genetic disease loci show selective expression in the Drosophila tissues analogous to the affected human tissues, providing a useful filter for potential candidate genes. Additionally, the contributions of each tissue to the whole-fly array signal can be calculated, demonstrating the limitations of whole-organism approaches to functional genomics and allowing modeling of a simple tissue fractionation procedure that should improve detection of weak or tissue-specific signals. | adult, wild-type, canton s, brain, head, eye, thoracicoabdominal ganglion, salivary gland, crop, midgut, hindgut, heart, ovary, fat body, testis, male accessory glands, virgin spermatheca, mated spermatheca spermatheca, carcass, cns, salivary gland, tubule, larval, s2 cells, whole fly |

Neuroanatomy Atlas Resource Report Resource Website |
Neuroanatomy Atlas (RRID:SCR_002402) | Neuroanatomy Atlas | data or information resource, atlas | Annotated magnetic resonance brain images, both slices and surface views, normalized to Talairach space, along with annotations and a nice tutorial on image normalization. A viewer for MRI images (MRicro) is available and is described in a separate entry. Series of coronal, axial and sagittal brain slices along with some rendered volumes with major brain structures delineated. Slices are presented as static series with partial overlap of slices, so they are not suitable for 3d reconstruction. This neuroanatomy atlas shows regions on normalized MRI scans. Normalization is the process of warping a brain to match a standard size, orientation and shape of other brains. You can normalize MRI scans using programs like AIR, FLIRT or SPM. Once normalized, the overall shape of your MRI scan will approximately match those in this atlas. However, normalization preserves the unique sulcal features of each brain, so there will be some variation between your image and the images shown in this atlas. There is a great deal of individual variability even after normalization, so any atlas is only a rough guide to the shape and location of structures in an individuals brain. As I have noted before, secondary and tertiary sulci are not found in all individuals (Ono et al. 1990, Atlas of Cerebral Sulci). Another benefit of normalizing brains is it makes it easy to complete an accurate "scalp stripping" with brain extracting software (my MRIcro software implements Steve Smith's BET for this task). You can then create a useful volume rendering of the cortical surface. Typically, it is much easier to identify cortical sulci and gyri by looking at a rendered image of the brain's surface. This atlas shows you how to recognize these landmarks on a rendered MRI scan. | magnetic resonance imaging, neuroanatomy, brain | has parent organization: University of South Carolina; South Carolina; USA | Free, Available for download, Freely available | nif-0000-00121 | SCR_002402 | 2026-02-16 09:45:45 | 0 | ||||||||

Hungarian Neurological-Psychiatric Biobank (RRID:SCR_003715) | NEPSYBANK | tissue bank, material resource, biomaterial supply resource | The Hungarian Society of Clinical Neurgenetics established a nationwide collaboration for prospective collection of human biological materials and databases from patient with neurological and psychiatric diseases. The basic triangle of the NEPSYBANK is the sample, the information and the study management. The present participants of the NEPSYBANK are the Department of Neurology and Psychiatry of the four Medical Universities (in Budapest, Debrecen, Pecs, Szeged) and the National Institute of Psychiatry and Neurology in Budapest. The NEPSYBANK is a disease based biobank collecting both phenotypical and environmental data and biological materials such as DNA/RNA, whole blood, plasma, cerebral spinal fluid, muscle / nerve / skin biopsy, brain, and fibroblast. The target of the diseases is presently (Phase I): stroke syndromes, dementias, movement disorders, motoneuron diseases, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia, alcohol addiction. In the near future (Phase II.) it is planned to enlarge the scale with headaches, disorders of the peripheral nerves, disorders of neuromuscular transmission, disorders of skeletal muscle, depression, anxiety. DNA/RNA is usually extracted from whole blood, but occasionally different tissues such as muscle, brain etc. can be used as well. The extracting procedures differ among the institutes, but in all cases the concentration and the quality of the DNA/RNA must be registered in the database. Participating institutional biobanks have committed themselves to follow common quality standards, which provide access to samples after prioritization on scientific grounds only. In every case the following data are registered. 1. General data: main bank categories, age, sex, ethnicity, body height, body weight, economic stats, education, type of place of living, marital status, birth complications, alcohol, drugs, smoking. 2. Sample properties (sample ID, type of sample, date of extraction, concentration, and level of purity). General patient data as blood pressure, heart rate, internal medical status, ECG, additional diseases. Disease specific question e.g. in schizophrenia the diagnosis after DSMIV and ICD 10, detailed diagnostic questions after both classification, detailed psychiatric and neurological status, laboratory findings, rating scales, data of neuroimaging, genetic tests, applied medication (with generic name, dose, duration), adverse drug effects and other treatments. The Biobank Information Management System (BIMS) is responsible for linkage of databases containing information on the individual sample donors. If you want to have samples from the NEPSYBANK an application must be submitted containing the following information: short research plan including aims and study design, ethic application with a positive decision, specific demands regarding the right of disposition, agreements with grant organizations which regulate immaterial property, information about financing (academic grants, support from industry).

Brain Bank for Autism Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Brain Bank for Autism (RRID:SCR_004664) | Brain Bank for Autism | tissue bank, material resource, biomaterial supply resource | Encourages and facilitates brain tissue donation for use in the best scientific studies to better understand the biological basis of autism down to the cellular and molecular levels and through that understanding bring about the development of effective interventions for those affected by autism spectrum disorders. To ensure the best co-ordinated use of brain tissue, the UK Brain Bank for Autism works in collaboration with the Autism Tissue Program in the US and shares the same Tissue Advisory board. The Brain Bank for Autism & Related Developmental Research was established in 2009. It is an initiative to develop a similar program in the UK to the Autism Tissue Program, which has been developed in the US since 1998. Our Brain Bank is the first extension outside the US of the Autism Tissue Program and is integrated with it. The Brain Bank is based at Oxford University, where it forms part of the Thomas Willis Oxford Brain Collection. It operates in accordance with all UK legal and ethical requirements. The donation of post-mortem brain tissue for this research program is of fundamental importance to our understanding of the causes of autism and to help us develop more effective diagnostic measures and interventions. A separate brain bank for autism is necessary because we need to understand how, in autism, the brain develops over time and how the brain functions as a whole. However, our Brain Bank will promote close cooperation across all relevant brain banks in order to take the research forward. Our research focuses on: * people within the autism spectrum or their family members * people not affected by autism but who are affected by epilepsy * individuals without autism or epilepsy. | brain, tissue, autism, autism spectrum disorder, family member, epilepsy, normal control, post-mortem |

Brain atlas of the common marmoset Resource Report Resource Website |
Brain atlas of the common marmoset (RRID:SCR_005135) | Brain Atlas of the Common Marmoset | data or information resource, atlas | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on October 1, 2019. The first brain atlas for the common marmoset to be made available since a printed atlas by Stephan, Baron and Schwerdtfeger published in 1980. It is a combined histological and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) atlas constructed from the brains of two adult female marmosets. Histological sections were processed from Nissl staining and digitized to produce an atlas in a large format that facilitates visualization of structures with significant detail. Naming of identifiable brain structures was performed utilizing current terminology. For the present atlas, an adult female was perfused through the heart with PBS followed by 10% formalin. The brain was then sent to Neuroscience Associates of Knoxville, TN, who prepared the brain for histological analysis. The brain was cut in the coronal (frontal) plane at 40 microns, every sixth section stained for Nissl granules with thionine and every seventh section stained for myelinated fibers with the Weil technique. The mounted sections were photographed at the NIH (Medical Arts and Photography Branch). The equipment used was a Nikon Multiphot optical bench with Zeiss Luminar 100 mm lens, and scanned with a Better Light 6100 scan back driven by Better Light Viewfinder 5.3 software. The final images were saved as arrays of 6000x8000 pixels in Adobe Photoshop 6.0. A scale in mm provided with these images permitted construction of the final Nissl atlas files with a horizontal and vertical scale. Some additional re-touching (brightness and contrast) was done with Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0. The schematic (labeled) atlas plates were created from the Nissl images. The nomenclature came almost exclusively from brainmaps.org, where a rhesus monkey brain with structures labeled can be found. The labels for the MRI images were placed by M. R. Zametkin, under supervision from Dr. Newman. | callithrix jacchus jacchus, marmoset, primate neuroanatomy, callitrichidae, female, forebrain, thalamus, midbrain, brainstem, magnetic resonance imaging, adult, callithrix, histological section, nissl staining, brain, mri | has parent organization: NICHD Developmental Neuroethology - Laboratory of Comparative Ethology | NIH ; NICHD ; NINDS |
