Case Studies of Existing Human Tissue Repositories "Best Practices" for a Biospecimen Resource for the Genomic and Proteomic Era

This new volume details state-of-the-art techniques for a growing network of human tissue repositories, a network that may lead to significant advances in gene therapy and cancer research. Presenting insights and information from a study of twelve human tissue repositories, the authors identify "best practices" in collection, processing, annotation, storage, privacy, ethical concerns, informed consent, business plans, operations, intellectual property rights, public relations, marketing, and education that would be useful in designing a national biospecimen network.Eiseman, Elisa is the author of 'Case Studies of Existing Human Tissue Repositories "Best Practices" for a Biospecimen Resource for the Genomic and Proteomic Era', published 0006 under ISBN 9780833035271 and ISBN 0833035274.
