Abstract
Biobank sample storage is critical in population health and epidemiology studies. Biobanks bridge two very different worlds: they connect to the participants and patients at an individual level, but they also aggregate information and represent the cutting edge of scientific discovery. In this brief report, we describe how the LifeLines study in the Netherlands manages its resources for communication and services, and how it can serve as a model for the Human Heredity and Health in Africa Initiative (H3Africa Initiative).
期刊介绍：
Biopreservation and Biobanking is the first journal to provide a unifying forum for the peer-reviewed communication of recent advances in the emerging and evolving field of biospecimen procurement, processing, preservation and banking, distribution, and use. The Journal publishes a range of original articles focusing on current challenges and problems in biopreservation, and advances in methods to address these issues related to the processing of macromolecules, cells, and tissues for research.
In a new section dedicated to Emerging Markets and Technologies, the Journal highlights the emergence of new markets and technologies that are either adopting or disrupting the biobank framework as they imprint on society. The solutions presented here are anticipated to help drive innovation within the biobank community.
Biopreservation and Biobanking also explores the ethical, legal, and societal considerations surrounding biobanking and biorepository operation. Ideas and practical solutions relevant to improved quality, efficiency, and sustainability of repositories, and relating to their management, operation and oversight are discussed as well.
