Glycans are one of the major biological polymers found in the mammalian body. They play a vital role in a number of physiologic and pathologic conditions. Glycan microarrays allow a plethora of information to be obtained on protein–glycan binding interactions. In this review, we describe the intricacies of the generation of glycan microarray data and the experimental methods for studying binding. We highlight the importance of this knowledge before moving on to the data analysis. We then highlight a number of tools for the analysis of glycan microarray data such as data repositories, data visualization and manual analysis tools, automated analysis tools and structural informatics tools.

Summary The analysis of biological networks is increasingly important in the life sciences and in particular in systems biology. Computer-based analysis tools are exploited for the investigation of these networks. However, to find relevant data sources can be a time-consuming task, access to information changes, frequently it is not obvious to a user which tools can be used in combination with specific data sources, and network data is often not available in a format directly usable by analysis tools.To assist in collecting information about biological network data sources, and to help in investigating possible combinations of data sources and analysis software, we created BiNCo-wiki. BiNCo-wiki is a wiki system that stores information related to biological networks and allows all users to add or modify this information in an easy way. The collaborative character of a wiki system supports easy sharing of information and allows the community-based extension of the information already stored in BiNCo-wiki. We describe the general structure and functionality of the system and its initial content. BiNCo-wiki is accessible, free of charge, at http://pgrc.ipk-gatersleben.de/BiNCO-wiki.

The Center for Open Science (COS) and technical partners propose to extend its open infrastructure to support ASAPbio's call for a central service. COS's approach is community based and is accompanied by letters of support from 12 preprint services (e.g., arXiv, bioRxiv, SocArXiv), 15 data repositories (e.g., Dryad, Protein Data Bank, figshare), and 5 other stakeholders (e.g., HHMI, Health Research Alliance, GBSI).

Abstract Speech-language pathologists, working in a multicultural, community-based environment for young children with special needs in Vancouver, Canada, collected information on 84 clients using AAC from a chart review. The speech-language pathologists collected additional usage information and attended a group interview to discuss barriers and facilitators of AAC. Thirty-one percent of the children were using AAC. Children aged between 16 and 72 months typically relied on multiple modes of communication, including sign, communication boards and binders, and low- and high-tech communication devices. All of the children used at least one type of unaided mode. Fifty-five percent used pictures or communication boards/displays, and 29% used technology with speech output. Similarities in usage of AAC were noted in home and child-care settings with increased use of unaided in homes and a slightly increased use of aided communication in child care settings. Speech-language pathologists reported that the time needed for AAC intervention as well as limited funding for high-tech devices continue to be major barriers. Additional research is needed to describe current AAC practices with young children particularly from minority linguistic and cultural backgrounds. Stakeholder input is needed to explore perceptions of children's usage of AAC in daily life with familiar and unfamiliar communication partners.

The critical need to identify children with hearing loss and provide treatment at the earliest possible age has become increasingly apparent in recent years (Northern & Downs, 1978). Reduction of the auditory signal during the critical language-learning period can severely limit the child's potential for developing a complete, effective communication system. Identification and treatment of children having handicapping conditions at an early age has gained impetus through the Handicapped Children's Early Education Program (HCEEP) projects funded by the Bureau of Education for the Handicapped (BEH).
