AAAS - Science and Human Rights Program - 0 views
-
The AAAS Science and Human Rights Coalition is a network of scientific organizations that recognizes a role for science and scientists in efforts to realize human rights. Composed of scientific associations, societies and academies, as well as individual scientists, the Coalition aims to facilitate communication and partnerships on human rights within and across scientific communities, and between these and human rights communities. The Coalition's programs are being carried out by the following five working groups: 1. Welfare of Scientists 2. Science Ethics and Human Rights 3. Service to the Scientific Community 4. Service to the Human Rights Community 5. Education and Information Resources The Coalition is also pursuing a joint initiative to realize the human right to "the benefits of scientific progress" (Article 15, International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights).

SWAN (Semantic Web Applications in Neuromedicine) Project - 0 views
-
SWAN (Semantic Web Applications in Neuromedicine) is a Web-based collaborative program that aims to organize and annotate scientific knowledge about Alzheimer disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative disorders. Its goal is to facilitate the formation, development and testing of hypotheses about the disease. The ultimate goal of this project is to create tools and resources to manage the evolving universe of data and information about AD in such a way that researchers can easily comprehend their larger context ("what hypothesis does this support or contradict?"), compare and contrast hypotheses ("where do these two hypotheses agree and disagree?"), identify unanswered questions and synthesize concepts and data into ever more comprehensive and useful hypotheses and treatment targets for this disease. The SWAN project is designed to allow the community of AD researchers to author, curate and connect a diversity of data and ideas about AD via secure personal and public SWAN workspaces, using the emerging Semantic Web paradigm for deep interconnection of data, information and knowledge. We are initially focusing on developing a fully public Web resource deployed as part of the Alzheimer Research Forum web site (www.alzforum.org). After the public resource has been launched, we will also develop secure personal workspaces (MySWAN) and semi-private lab workspaces (LabSWAN). An essential component of this project is development of an initial, core knowledge base within SWAN, which will provide immediate value to researchers at the time of deployment. This is a critically important part of our strategy to ensure that the SWAN system gains wide adoption and active participation by the AD research community. As part of our development strategy, we are also recruiting a "beta test" community of AD researchers to enter their own hypotheses, add commentaries and citations, and provide feedback on the technology and content. SWAN is being developed by a collaborative team from

The myGrid team produce and use a suite of tools designed to "help e-Scientists get on with science and get on with scientists". The tools support the creation of e-laboratories and have been used in domains as diverse as biology, social science, music, astronomy, text mining and chemistry. The tools have been adopted by a large number of projects and institutions. The team has developed tools and infrastructure to allow: * the design, editing and execution of workflows in Taverna * the sharing of workflows and related data by myExperiment * the cataloguing and annotation of services in BioCatalogue and Feta * the creation of user-friendly rich clients such as UTOPIA

The National Center for Biomedical Ontology - 0 views
-
The National Center for Biomedical Ontology is a consortium of leading biologists, clinicians, informaticians, and ontologists who develop innovative technology and methods allowing scientists to create, disseminate, and manage biomedical information and knowledge in machine-processable form. Our visionis that all biomedical knowledge and data are disseminated on the Internet using principled ontologies, such that they are semantically interoperable and useful for improving biomedical science and clinical care. Our resources include the Open Biomedical Ontologies (OBO) library, the Open Biomedical Data (OBD) repositories, and tools for accessing and using this information in research. The Center collaborates with biomedical researchers conducting Driving Biological Projects to enable outside research and stimulate technology development in the Center. The Center undertakes outreach and educational activities (Biomedical Informatics Program) to train future researchers to use biomedical ontologies and related tools with the goal of enhancing scientific discovery.
Bowtie: An ultrafast, memory-efficient short read aligner - 0 views
-
Bowtie is an ultrafast, memory-efficient short read aligner. It aligns short DNA sequences (reads) to the human genome at a rate of 25 million reads per hour on a typical workstation with 2 gigabytes of memory. Bowtie indexes the genome with a Burrows-Wheeler index to keep its memory footprint small: 1.3 GB for the human genome. It supports alignment policies equivalent to Maq and SOAP but is much faster: about 35x faster than Maq and over 350x faster than SOAP when aligning to the human genome.
BioLit Project - 0 views
-
The establishment of open access literature makes it possible for knowledge to be extracted from scholarly articles and included in other resources. BioLit aims to extract database identifiers and rich meta-data from open access articles in the life sciences and integrate that information with existing biological databases. We have begun prototyping this effort using a clone of the RCSB Protein Data Bank, a database of macromolecular structures.
OPENCV \ library - 0 views

OpenCV is an open source computer vision library originally developed by Intel. It is free for commercial and research use under a BSD license. The library is cross-platform, and runs on Mac OS X, Windows and Linux. It focuses mainly towards real-time image processing, as such, if it finds Intel's Integrated Performance Primitives on the system, it will use these commercial optimized routines to accelerate itself. This implementation is not a complete port of OpenCV. Currently, this library supports : * real-time capture * video file import * basic image treatment (brightness, contrast, threshold, …) * object detection (face, body, …) * blob detection Future versions will include more advanced functions such as motion analysis, object and color tracking, multiple OpenCV object instances … For more information about OpenCV visit the Open Source Computer Vision Library Intel webpage, the OpenCV Library Wiki, and the OpenCV Reference Manual (pdf).
