Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To maintain a resource (bank) of biospecimens and data collected from individuals being seen clinically for pancreas conditions to facilitate the discovery and development of (but not limited to) biomarkers of risk (including genomic and proteomic) and early detection as well as novel targeted therapies for pancreatic diseases with a focus on pancreatic cancer.
