In news–The Department of Biotechnology (DBT)-National Brain Research Centre (DBT-NBRC) have recently developed the project SWADESH.

About SWADESH-

  • It is the first large-scale multimodal neuroimaging database designed specifically for the Indian population with big-data architecture and analytics for various disease categories under one platform.
  • It would strengthen Alzheimer’s disease (AD) research and help the scientific community come up with promising treatments.
  • It proposes a big-data architecture that manages and analyzes six modules, namely 
    • Neurodegenerative [AD, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and Parkinson’s disease (PD)].
    • Neuropsychiatric (schizophrenia and bipolar disorder).
    • Neurodevelopmental (autism and epilepsy).
    • COVID-19-related disorders, other disorders, and healthy subjects.
  • SWADESH is supported by JAVA-based workflow environment and Python. 
  • Backed by a dedicated storage system, it provides quality control, data analysis reports, and data backups. 
  • Its development will facilitate the integration of multi-site data and collaborative research worldwide. 
  • Presently, SWADESH has data of 500 AD and MCI patients and 70 PD patients. 
  • It also includes data of 600 healthy old individuals and 800 healthy young individuals in the control group.

Clinical research tools-

DBT-NBRC has developed the following clinical research tools through SWADESH:

  • GAURI system uses adaptive pattern recognition and learning schemes for predictive single or differential diagnosis, designed with MRI modalities and neuropsychological batteries. 
  • NINS-STAT is a high-performance state-of-the-art automated statistical test selection and execution software package with high applicability in clinical research. 
  • KALPANA is an integrative package for visualization, preprocessing, and quantitation of MRS data. 
  • PRATEEK analyzes multimodal neuroimaging data that minimizes the need for expertise in handling different neuroimaging tools for processing and analyzing multimodal data. 
  • Stimulus Timing Integrated Module (STIM) includes a versatile paradigm design system, presentation system, and real-time participant response-collection system for functional MRI-related purposes, mapping brain activity non-invasively in normal healthy condition and clinical evaluation of various brain disorders.
  • BHARAT is a big-data analytic model for early diagnostic biomarkers of AD. The design included a Hadoop-based big-data framework integrating MRI, MRS, and neuropsychological test scores.

About National Brain Research Centre(NBRC)-

  • It is the only institute in India dedicated to Neuroscience Research and Education.
  • The Department of Biotechnology (DBT) established NBRC to provide the state of art facilities for a coordinated multi-disciplinary team of scientists to work in the frontier areas of Neurosciences.
  • The creation of NBRC was announced on 14th November 1997.
  • Now, NBRC is an autonomous institute funded by the DBT and is also a Deemed-to-be University
  • NBRC has been recognised as an Institution of Excellence by the Government of India.
