http://neuronalarchitects.com/about-the-workshop.html

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 17, 2016. Statistical and biomedical informatics software studio that develops neuroscience applications and brain computer interface games. They are dedicated to the integration of medical research, neuroscience, time series analysis, computer programming, statistics, sensor technologies, graphics design, artificial intelligence and entertainment to build gaming systems for neuroscientific research and intelligent tutoring in the classroom and lab. The current focus of The Cromwell Workshop/Neuronal Architects is on theoretical neuroscience and experimental modeling of psychological and neural processes that involve attention, emotion, motivation and executive functions that are impaired by neurological diseases. The outcome of this work is to use these results in the design of multiple genre brain computer interface gaming systems that can be used in both clinical and at home settings. If you would like to explore any collaborative opportunities to use their software or enhance your existing statistical products with their .NET, Java, R and Matlab code bases, let them know.

http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/vsn.html

Software package that implements a method for normalizing microarray intensities, both between colours within array, and between arrays. The method uses a robust variant of the maximum-likelihood estimator for the stochastic model of microarray data described in the references. The model incorporates data calibration (a.k.a. normalization), a model for the dependence of the variance on the mean intensity, and a variance stabilizing data transformation. Differences between transformed intensities are analogous to normalized log-ratios. However, in contrast to the latter, their variance is independent of the mean, and they are usually more sensitive and specific in detecting differential transcription.

http://www.bari2d.org/

A multicenter randomized clinical trial that aims to determine the best therapies for people with type 2 diabetes and moderately severe cardiovascular disease. 2368 participants were randomized at 49 sites in 6 countries. All subjects were given intensive medical therapy to control cholesterol and blood pressure and given counseling, if needed, to quit smoking and to lose weight. Beyond that, they compared whether prompt revascularization, either bypass surgery or angioplasty, e.g. stents, was more effective than medical therapy alone. At the same time, they also looked at which of two diabetes treatment strategies resulted in better outcomes����??insulin-providing versus insulin-sensitizing - that is, increasing the amount of insulin or making the insulin work better. Only patients with known type 2 diabetes and heart disease that could be treated appropriately with a revascularization OR medical therapy alone were eligible for the trial. Patients entered the study between January 2001 ����?? March 2005 and were followed for an average of five years. When a patient entered the study, physicians first decided whether that patient should receive stenting or bypass surgery. The patient then received their randomization assignment. All patients were treated in BARI 2D for both their diabetes and heart disease, as well as other risk factors that might effect those diseases, regardless of which group they were in. Diabetes-specific complications including retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy, and peripheral vascular disease were monitored regularly. Tests, blood samples, urine samples, and treatment cost data were obtained periodically through the trial and examined by experts at 7 central laboratories and other research partners. Experts on risk factors routinely oversaw treatments of all patients at 4 central management centers. A panel of independent experts reviewed data every six months to make sure that all patients were receiving safe care.

http://jdrf.org/

Global funder of type 1 diabetes (T1D) research that aims to progressively remove the impact of T1D from people's lives until a world without T1D is achieved. JDRF collaborates with a wide spectrum of partners and is the only organization with the scientific resources, regulatory influence, and a working plan to better treat, prevent, and eventually cure T1D. More than 80 percent of JDRF's expenditures directly support research and research-related education. In 2012 Forbes magazine named JDRF one of its five All-Star charities, citing the organization's efficiency and effectiveness. The organization awards research grants for laboratory and clinical investigations and sponsors a variety of career development and research training programs for new and established investigators. JDRF also sponsors international workshops and conferences for biomedical researchers. Individual chapters offer support groups and other activities for families affected by diabetes.

Computational model that can be used for estimating human and rat airway particle dosimetry. The model is applicable to risk assessment, research, and education. The MPPD model calculates the deposition and clearance of monodisperse and polydisperse aerosols in the respiratory tracts of rats and human adults and children (deposition only) for particles ranging in size from ultrafine (0.01 micrometers) to coarse (20 micrometers). The models are based on single-path and multiple-path methods for tracking air flow and calculating aerosol deposition in the lung. The single-path method calculates deposition in a typical path per airway generation, while the multiple-path method calculates particle deposition in all airways of the lung and provides lobar-specific and airway-specific information. Within each airway, deposition is calculated using theoretically derived efficiencies for deposition by diffusion, sedimentation, and impaction within the airway or airway bifurcation. Filtration of aerosols by the nose and mouth is determined using empirical efficiency functions. The MPPD model includes calculations of particle clearance in the lung following deposition.
