Archival of Human Biological Samples in CU-Med Biobank

February 9, 2024 updated by: Professor Ronald C.W. Ma, Chinese University of Hong Kong
CU-Med Biobank collaborates with different researchers for collecting and distributing human biospecimens and clinical data for assisting scientific research.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

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.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To distribute human biospecimens for clinical research
Time Frame: 99 years
