Brief Summary

CU-Med Biobank collaborates with different researchers for collecting and distributing human biospecimens and clinical data for assisting scientific research.

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
NameTimeMethod
To distribute human biospecimens for clinical research99 years

By using the biological samples from CU-Med Biobank, translational studies can be done.

To discover the pathological mechanism of different acute and chronic diseases such as cancer, stroke, heart disease, dementia & diabetes99 years

The relationship between different genome/proteome/bacteriome/virome and various diseases can be revealed, thus leading to a better prognostic and diagnostic outcome.
