Collection of databases and tools designed to help researchers study the genetics of human ageing using modern approaches such as functional genomics, network analyses, systems biology and evolutionary analyses. A major resource in HAGR is GenAge, which includes a curated database of genes related to human aging and a database of ageing- and longevity-associated genes in model organisms. Another major database in HAGR is AnAge. Featuring over 4,000 species, AnAge provides a compilation of data on aging, longevity, and life history that is ideal for the comparative biology of aging. GenDR is a database of genes associated with dietary restriction based on genetic manipulation experiments and gene expression profiling. Other projects include evolutionary studies, genome sequencing, cancer genomics, and gene expression analyses. The latter allowed them to identify a set of genes commonly altered during mammalian aging which represents a conserved molecular signature of aging. Software, namely in the form of scripts for Perl and SPSS, is made available for users to perform a variety of bioinformatic analyses potentially relevant for studying aging. The Perl toolkit, entitled the Ageing Research Computational Tools (ARCT), provides modules for parsing files, data-mining, searching and downloading data from the Internet, etc. Also available is an SPSS script that can be used to determine the demographic rate of aging for a given population. An extensive list of links regarding computational biology, genomics, gerontology, and comparative biology is also available.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on February 07, 2013. A framework for understanding human cognition, grounded in principles specifying the character of human cognitive processes, and constrained by properties, of the underlying neural mechanisms. The Center will exploit this framework to guide formulation of explicit, testable models of normal and disordered cognition, including models of the development of cognitive functions and of their disintegration as a result of brain damage or disease. This site is intended as a public service and as a focal point for exchange of ideas among the participants in the Interdisciplinary Behavioral Science Center (IBSC). Public areas of the site provide information about the Center as a whole and about the various projects in the Center, as well as web-accessible documents and tools that we are making available as a public service. A fundamental tenet is that cognition is an emergent phenomenon, arising from the interactions of cooperating processing elements organized into specialized populations. One aim of the center will be to investigate the utility of explicit models that are formulated in terms of this approach, addressing many aspects of cognition including semantic knowledge, language processing, cognitive control, perception, learning and memory. A second aim will also investigate the principles that are embodied in the models, including principles of learning, processing and representation. Learning will be a central focus, since it plays a crucial role in cognitive development, acquisition of skills, formation of memories, and remediation of cognitive functions. A third aim of the Center will be to incorporate constraints from neuroscience. Findings from neuroscience will guide the specification of the principles and the formulation of domain-specific details of particular models, and will provide target experimental observations against which to assess the adequacy of the models. In addition, the Center will make use of neurophysiological methods in animals and functional brain imaging in humans to test predictions and generate additional data needed to constrain and inform model development. The Center will provide training funds for interdisciplinary research fellowships, to train junior scientists in the convergent use of behavioral, computational, and neuroscience methodologies. The outcome of the Centers efforts will be a fuller characterization of the nature of human cognitive processes, a clearer formulation of the underlying principles, and a more complete understanding of normal and disordered functions across many domains of cognition. This Center includes eight projects dedicated to various aspects of cognition and various general issues that arise in the effort to build explicit models that capture different aspects of cognition, and also includes an administrative core to help foster integration and provide computing resources. * Project 1: Functional and Neural Organization of Semantic Memory * Project 2: Interactive Processes in Language: Lexical Processing * Project 3: Interactive Processes in Language: Sentence Processing * Project 4: Mechanisms of Cognitive Control * Project 5: Interactive Processes in Perception: Neurophysiology of Figure-Ground Organization * Project 6: Basic Mechanisms and Cooperating Systems in Learning Memory * Project 7: Age and Experience Dependent Processes in Learning * Project 8: Theoretical Foundations * Core: Integration, Computational Resources, and Administration

An annotated, searchable collection of HIV-1 cytotoxic and helper T-cell epitopes and antibody binding sites, plus related tools and information. The goal of this database is to provide a comprehensive listing of defined HIV epitopes. These data are also printed in the HIV Molecular Immunology compendium, which is updated yearly and provided free of charge to scientific researchers, both by online download and as a printed copy. The data included in this database are extracted from the HIV immunology literature. HIV-specific B-cell and T-cell responses are summarized and annotated. Immunological responses are divided into three sections, CTL (CD8+), T helper (CD4+), and antibody. Within these sections, defined epitopes are organized by protein and binding sites within each protein, moving from left to right through the coding regions spanning the HIV genome. We include human responses to natural HIV infections, as well as vaccine studies in a range of animal models and human trials. Responses that are not specifically defined, such as responses to whole proteins or monoclonal antibody responses to discontinuous epitopes, are summarized at the end of each protein sub-section. Studies describing general HIV responses to the virus, but not to any specific protein, are included at the end of each section. The annotation includes information such as cross-reactivity, escape mutations, antibody sequence, TCR usage, functional domains that overlap with an epitope, immune response associations with rates of progression and therapy, and how specific epitopes were experimentally defined. Basic information such as HLA specificities for T-cell epitopes, isotypes of monoclonal antibodies, and epitope sequences are included whenever possible. All studies that we can find that incorporate the use of a specific monoclonal antibody are included in the entry for that antibody. A single T-cell epitope can have multiple entries, generally one entry per study. Finally, tables and maps of all defined linear epitopes relative to the HXB2 reference proteins are provided. Alignments of CTL, helper T-cell, and antibody epitopes are available through the search interfaces. Only responses to HIV-1 and HIV-2 are included in the database.
