Program that develops materials and methods to improve measurements of autoantibodies that are predictive of type 1 diabetes. These are the most sensitive and meaningful measures for predicting this disease. Historically, autoantibody measures have been variable among laboratories; therefore, this program, in collaboration with the Immunology of Diabetes Society, was established. The goals of DASP are to improve laboratory methods, evaluate laboratory performance, support the development of sensitive and specific measurement technologies, and develop reference methods. Currently, 48 key laboratories from 19 countries participate in DASP.

http://bowtie-bio.sourceforge.net/myrna/index.shtml

A cloud computing tool for calculating differential gene expression in large RNA-seq datasets. It uses Bowtie for short read alignment and R/Bioconductor for interval calculations, normalization, and statistical testing. These tools are combined in an automatic, parallel pipeline that runs in the cloud (Elastic MapReduce in this case) on a local Hadoop cluster, or on a single computer, exploiting multiple computers and CPUs wherever possible.

The Bureau of Meteorology is Australia''s national weather, climate and water agency. Its expertise and services assist Australians in dealing with the harsh realities of their natural environment, including drought, floods, fires, storms, tsunami and tropical cyclones. Through regular forecasts, warnings, monitoring and advice spanning the Australian region and Antarctic territory, the Bureau provides one of the most fundamental and widely used services of government. The Bureau contributes to national social, economic, cultural and environmental goals by providing observational, meteorological, hydrological and oceanographic services and by undertaking research into science and environment related issues in support of its operations and services. The Bureau of Meteorology operates under the authority of the Meteorology Act 1955 and the Water Act 2007 which provide the legal basis for its activities, while its operation is continually assessed in accordance with the national need for climatic records, water information, scientific understanding of Australian weather and climate and effective service provision to the Australian community. The Bureau of Meteorology must also fulfill Australia''s international obligations under the Convention of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and related international meteorological treaties and agreements.

As fascinating as diversity is, it''s not the sort of thing that computational scientists usually get excited about. Uncovering how diversity came to be has captured the attention of a team of researchers at Alliance partner University of New Mexico and the University of Texas, though. Using the 512-processor LosLobos Linux Pentium III supercomputing cluster at the Albuquerque High Performance Computing Center, the team has created a phylogeny reconstruction - or evolutionary history - of 12 bluebell species, predicting all of the steps that take these species back to a single common ancestor. To meet the challenge, they created a whole new piece of software known as GRAPPA. GRAPPA is is free software available as a gzipped tar file containing all source files needed to compile an executable version.

An academic genealogy platform that collects information about graduate students and posdoctoral research connections. The Neuroscience Academic Family Tree is a free, volunteer-run website designed to help you track your academic genealogy. Our goal is to collect information about the graduate student and postdoctoral connections between most researchers in the field. :How do I navigate the tree? :There are several ways to wander around Neurotree. The basics are summed up in the commands at the top of each page: :* Tree - Jump to a random node on the tree :* Search - Search for a specific person or people at a specific institution :* Recent additions - List the most recent additions :* Distance - Trace the connection between two people in the tree :* Add person - Add a new person to the tree (and be a good citizen!). You must sign up for an account to make additions. :* Analysis - Learn more amazing facts about neurogenealogy! ... and possibly something about the field of neuroscience.
