The main aim of developing Biobanking at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø is to maximise the value of data and biospecimen repositories across all campuses. Biobanking is now heavily relied upon worldwide for advancing research into aÌýcomprehensive variety of health problems and to develop new ideas, technology and knowledge. Access to biorepositories and associated data is crucial to ongoing biomedical research.
It is vital for large and small sample collections and data to be fully appreciated, ensuring the robust, accurate management of tissue and data repositories. To achieve this in a rationalized model, the full potential of these sample and data sets in the development of new translational research ideas and advancement of personalised medicine can be realised, not only by those at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø but by the wider research community.
Developing infrastructure for Biobanking at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø will help maximise, for patient benefit, the value of data and biospecimen repositories across all campuses. Patients' samples with pseudoanonymised data are crucial for the development of biomedical research, particularly translational research. Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Biobanking information around governance and safe use of human tissue for patient benefit and research is centralised through this website.
