A non-profit dedicated to ending neurofibromatosis (NF) through research. It is the leading nonprofit funding source of NF research in the world. The mission of The Children''s Tumor Foundation is to: * Encourage and support research and the development of treatments and cures for neurofibromatosis types 1 and 2, schwannomatosis, and related disorders (hereafter collectively referred to as NF); * Support persons with NF, their families, and caregivers by providing thorough, accurate, current, and readily accessible information; * Assist in the development of clinical centers, best practices, and other patient support mechanisms (but not including direct medical care) to create better access to quality healthcare for affected individuals; and, * Expand public awareness of NF to promote earlier and accurate diagnoses by the medical community, increase the non-affected population''s understanding of the challenges facing people with NF, and encourage financial and other forms of support from public and private sources. Through the implementation of the Foundation''s research initiatives, progress is being made on all fronts and for all types of NF; from discovery studies understanding the molecular signaling deficits that cause the manifestations of NF to the growth of preclinical drug screening initiatives and the emergence of a growing number of clinical trials. The Foundation advances research through strategically integrated programs that speed therapies from the lab to the patient.

A prototype bioinformatics tool for designing hypotheses and evaluating them for consistency with existing knowledge. It consists of a modeling framework with the ability to accommodate diverse biological information sources, an event-based ontology for representing biological processes at different levels of detail, a database to query information in the ontology, and programs to perform hypothesis design and evaluation. There are five key components involved in making HyBrow work. # The Event-based ontology for representing biological knowledge # The Discreet Event Systems based conceptual framework which provides the theory that allows us to make statements in a context free formal language (made up of the ontology) and evaluate the statements for validity using constraints declared on existing data # The rule library that provides the steps to apply those constraints and decide support, contradiction or no comment. # The relational database that stores existing information structured into the ontology. # The user interface.

Foundation to help all people lead healthy, productive lives, this funding and job resource is focused on health, poverty, and opportunity. They work with partner organizations worldwide to tackle critical problems in four program areas. Their Global Development Division works to help the world''s poorest people lift themselves out of hunger and poverty. Their Global Health Division aims to harness advances in science and technology to save lives in developing countries. Their United States Division works to improve U.S. high school and postsecondary education and support vulnerable children and families in Washington State. And their Global Policy & Advocacy Division seeks to build strategic relationships and promote policies that will help advance their work. Our approach to grantmaking in all four areas emphasizes collaboration, innovation, risk-taking, and, most importantly, results. The foundation is unable to make grants directly to individuals. The majority of our funding is proactive and made to U.S. tax-exempt organizations that are independently identified by our staff.

Funds patient-focused research on gliomas to develop better diagnostics and treatments that lead to long-term survival and a high quality of life for patients with brain tumors. The goal is to decrease the suffering of patients with brain tumors. With an ultimate goal to cure brain cancer, their immediate goal is to improve diagnostics and treatment. They are dedicated to improving the lives of all patients with brain cancer by funding research that they hope will lead to the doubling of life expectancy of patients with brain cancer. Their goal is to do this within the next seven years. Since 2005 they''ve committed more than $50 million to research into brain tumors, with the expectation that this will lead to better diagnostics and therapies. They are dedicated to this search because funding leads to answers, and answers lead to hope.

Wrangler is an interactive tool for data cleaning and transformation. Spend less time formatting and more time analyzing your data. Why wrangle? * Too much time is spent manipulating data just to get analysis and visualization tools to read it. Wrangler is designed to accelerate this process: spend less time fighting with your data and more time learning from it. * Wrangler allows interactive transformation of messy, real-world data into the data tables analysis tools expect. Export data for use in Excel, R, Tableau, Protovis, ... * Want to learn more about Wrangler''s design? Take a look at our research paper. * Wrangler is still a work-in-progress. Please share your feedback and feature requests!

A Bayesian Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) sampler software for phylogenetic reconstruction. Its main distinguishing feature is the underlying probabilistic model, CAT (Lartillot and Philippe, 2004). CAT is an infinite mixture model accounting for site-specific amino-acid or nucleotide preferences. It is well suited to phylogenomic studies using large multigene alignments., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

The fundraising partner of the BC Cancer Agency and the largest charitable funder of cancer research in this province. We enable donors to make contributions to leading-edge research that has a direct impact on improvements to cancer care for patients in British Columbia. By connecting philanthropy and research, we support the revolutionary advances that will help us achieve our vision of a world free from cancer. Our Cause: Supporting world-renowned cancer research in BC One in three British Columbians will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Because the BC Cancer Agency integrates research and treatment, the process from discovery to treatment is shorter, and researchers are asking questions focused on the needs of patients in BC. The BC Cancer Agency excels at translating exciting discoveries from the researcher''''s bench to the patient''''s bedside. This is the quickest and most effective way to impact cancer care, and it makes the Agency an international leader in cancer research. Our Donors: Leading the way in helping us advance our cause Our unique relationship with the BC Cancer Agency allows our donors to be part of research discoveries made right here in BC. We invite donors to become more connected to the BC Cancer Agency''''s world-leading research that is shaping the future of patient care. At the BC Cancer Foundation we are funding the areas of greatest priority and promise. We know, because we ask the scientists and clinicians at the BC Cancer Agency to identify the priorities and needs that will have the most significant and timely impact on cancer care and treatment. We then partner with our donors to raise the necessary funds in support of this life-saving work. Together we are funding and finding solutions that are having a direct impact on improving care for cancer patients in British Columbia.
