PROJECT SUMMARY The Manhattan HIV Brain Bank (MHBB), member of the National NeuroAIDS Tissue Consortium (NNTC), is a research resource committed to providing scientists with densely annotated, high quality biospecimens in support of neuroAIDS and AIDS research. Located in New York City, it conducts a longitudinal, observational neurologic, neuropsychologic, and psychiatric study with individuals who agree to be organ donors upon demise. While harmonizing its assessments and activities with other members of the NNTC, MHBB retains important and unique characteristics. MHBB is a predominantly minority cohort with excellent representation of underserved populations, including African Americans and Latinos of Caribbean origin; approximately half of MHBB participants are women; and the population overall displays a high frequency of medical and psychosocial co-morbidities that contribute to nervous system dysfunction. The cohort also has excellent representation of individuals with long-term viral suppression, suited to the support of research into viral reservoirs. In providing its biospecimen and data resources, MHBB implements standard NNTC protocols to synchronize the type and quality of materials provided to researchers with other NNTC clinical sites. However, MHBB has also created a variety of customized resources to better serve its clients, inclusive of providing digital slides and viewing software to enhance case selection and analysis; obtaining fresh blood samples from the cohort for functional assays, which when coupled with MHBB's extensive nervous system characterization, provide a cost efficient mechanism to accomplish translational neuroAIDS research; and performing specialized tissue dissections to create unique collections like the Brain Arterial Remodeling Study. MHBB is committed to fostering young scientists embarking on careers in neuroAIDS research, with past support of an R25 mechanism, and plans to promote F- and K- type awards utilizing its resources in the next funding period. MHBB maintains high quality standards for the information it collects, with mature, databank-assisted protocols for quality assurance on the local level, use of monthly data reports and annual audits provided by the NNTC coordinating center, and participation in all NNTC subcommittees to assure compliance with standardized NNTC assessments. With a relatively small and dedicated staff, MHBB is able to rapidly adapt to NNTC initiatives, as its organizational structure and standard operating procedures result in frequent communication between all levels and domains of expertise. In addition, MHBB utilizes the talents and expanded expertise of its scientific advisor and multiple collaborators, who provide a robust translational science environment to enhance the study's operations.

项目摘要 国家神经辅助组织（NNTC）的成员曼哈顿艾滋病毒脑库（MHBB）是一个 研究资源致力于为科学家提供密集的注释，高质量的生物测量 神经辅助和艾滋病研究的支持。它位于纽约市，进行了纵向的观察 与同意成为器官捐赠者的个人神经系统，神经心理学和精神病研究 灭亡。在与NNTC的其他成员协调其评估和活动的同时，MHBB保留 重要和独特的特征。 MHBB是一个主要的少数群体，具有出色的代表 服务不足的人口，包括非裔美国人和加勒比海的拉丁美洲人；大约一半 MHBB参与者是女性；总体总体显示医学和 会导致神经系统功能障碍的社会心理合并症。该队列也很棒 长期病毒抑制的个体的代表，适合支持病毒研究 水库。在提供其生物测量和数据资源时，MHBB将标准NNTC协议实现 同步提供给研究人员提供的材料的类型和质量与其他NNTC临床部位。然而， MHBB还创建了各种定制资源，以更好地为客户提供服务，包括提供 数字幻灯片和查看软件以增强案例选择和分析；从中获得新鲜的血液样本 功能测定的队列，与MHBB的广泛神经系统表征相结合时， 提供了一种经济高效的机制来完成转化神经助剂研究；和表演 专门的组织解剖会创建独特的集合，例如脑动脉重塑研究。 MHBB是 致力于培养年轻科学家从事神经辅助研究的职业，并在过去的支持下 R25机制，并计划在下一个资金期间利用其资源来促进F-和K-Type奖励。 MHBB通过成熟，数据库辅助协议维护其收集信息的高质量标准 为了在本地一级的质量保证，使用NNTC提供的每月数据报告和年度审核 协调中心，并参与所有NNTC小组委员会，以确保符合标准化 NNTC评估。 MHBB具有相对较小和专用的员工，能够快速适应NNTC 倡议，因为其组织结构和标准操作程序导致频繁沟通 在所有级别和专业领域之间。此外，MHBB还利用了才华，并扩大了专业知识 它的科学顾问和多个合作者，他们为 增强研究的操作。
