Description

A collection of medical information (data) and samples of blood, urine or tissue is called a biorepository or biobank. The purpose of the Institutional Biobank is to collect and store data and samples, such as blood and saliva, from CHOP patients and their family members for future research. Our hope is that this large collection of data will be an important resource for CHOP researchers as they seek answers and strive to improve patient care.
