CU-Med Biobank collaborates with different researchers for collecting and distributing human biospecimens and clinical data for assisting scientific research.
CU-Med Biobank will collect and store high-quality specimens from cancer-related or other diseases. All samples are linked to annotated clinical data from approved consented protocols. This system provides researchers with high- quality biological samples and comprehensive clinical, pathological including molecular/genetic information for their research. This standardized CU-Med Biobank is a pivotal bridge to improve the translation of basic research into clinical applications. These findings will contribute to improve prevention, enhance diagnosis, develop new treatment and eventual cure of diseases.
