Biorepository Core Facility Description

The Biorepository Core collects tissue, blood, and saliva specimens from patients with cancer.  We match these specimens with an extensive and deidentified data set.  Our objective is to facilitate cancer research by providing these specimens and data to cancer researchers.

Our inventory is continually expanding and includes fresh frozen tissue, paraffin embedded tissue, touch prep slides, normal genomic DNA, blood, and saliva specimens.  Our data includes histological diagnosis, staging, treatments received, lifestyle factors, family history, and outcome.
