Biobanking

Molecular Biotechnology, 2008
Biobanks, more formally known as biological resource centers (BRCs), form an "unsung" yet critical component of the infrastructures for scientific research, industry and conservation, without which much of the current scientific activity involving microbial cultures and cell-lines would be effectively impossible.

Biobanks and biobank harmonisation

2017
Over the past decade and a half, genetic epidemiology has experienced an important shift from family-based studies of genetic linkage to individual-based studies of genetic association (Chapters One-Four). In part, this follows the recognition that if the 'common disease, common variant hypothesis'1-5 is true for at least a proportion of important ...
