NIH 3D Print Exchange

Few scientific 3D-printable models are available online, and the expertise required to generate and validate such models remains a barrier. The NIH 3D Print Exchange eliminates this gap with an open, comprehensive, and interactive website for searching, browsing, downloading, and sharing biomedical 3D print files, modeling tutorials, and educational material.

Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) Data Portal

The Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) analyzes cancer biospecimens by mass spectrometry, characterizing and quantifying their constituent proteins, or proteome. Mass spectrometry enables highly specific identification of proteins and proteoforms, accurate relative quantitation of protein abundance in contrasting biospecimens, and the localization of post-translational protein modifications, such as phosphorylation, on a protein’s sequence.-

The CPTAC Data Portal is the centralized repository for the dissemination of proteomic data collected by the Proteome Characterization Centers (PCCs) for the CPTAC program. All data is freely available to the public, subject to the data use guidelines.

CGCI & TARGET datasets

OCG employs stringent human subjects’ protection and data access policies to protect the privacy and confidentiality of the research participants. Depending on the risk of patient identification, OCG programs’ data is available to the scientific community in two tiers: open or controlled access. Both types of data can be accessed through its corresponding OCG program-specific data matrix.

When ten days = a lifetime: Rapid whole-genome sequencing helps critically ill newborn

It’s an ‘edge-of-your-seat’ story: The newborn’s heart had stopped multiple times in the hours since her birth. Her doctors at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford had tried everything to help her, but her situation was dire. The baby had an unusually severe form of an inherited cardiac condition called long QT syndrome. The syndrome, which is most often diagnosed in older children or adults, can be caused by a mutation in any of several genes; until the doctors knew exactly which genetic mutation was causing the condition they wouldn’t know what drug would be most likely to help. The stakes were high: by her second day of life she’d received an implantable defibrillator and several intravenous drug infusions.

New service to help untangle the mysteries of DNA

An athlete in both high school and college, Julie Prillinger had no idea anything was wrong with her until she went for a physical for a new job. The doctor detected something unusual in the rhythm of her heartbeat and referred her to a cardiologist.

Tests showed that Prillinger had an inherited condition of the heart called hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. It is caused by mutations in genes involved in the heart’s muscle cells. Those mutations typically disorganize those cells, altering the heart’s walls and disrupting the flow and force of blood out of the heart. It is the most common cause of sudden death in young people and one of the most common inherited cardiovascular disorders

Finding Hope in Whole Genome Sequencing: Retta Beery at TEDxYouth@SanDiego 2013

Retta Beery's twins, Noah and Alexis, were born with a neurologic disorder. Through research and advocacy, Retta discovered that her twins were misdiagnosed and then, eight years later, would use whole genome sequencing to give an exact diagnosis with additional treatment that saved Noah and Alexis's lives.

Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF)

The Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF) is a charitable organization dedicated to multiple myeloma, an incurable blood cancer, which afflicts over fifty thousand Americans each year. Most medical charities focus on increasing public awareness and on raising money to distribute to researchers, in the hope that some of the work will lead to a new drug or a cure; but the MMRF runs as if it were a for-profit business, expecting high returns from the money the organization raises from donor
