Description: THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on March 27, 2013. Web-based portal to connect all the constituencies in the global biobank community. The project seeks to increase the transparency and accessibility of the scientific research process by connecting researchers with an additional source of funding - microinvestments received from the broader online community. In exchange for these public investments, researchers will maintain research logs detailing the play-by-play progress made in their project, as well as publishing all of their data in a public database under a science commons license. These research projects, in turn, will serve to continually update a research-based neuroscience-based human brain & body curriculum. Biobanks are the meeting point of two major information trends in biomedical research: the generation of huge amounts of genomic and other laboratory data, and the electronic capture and integration of patient clinical records. They are comprised of large numbers of human biospecimens supplemented with clinical data. Biobanks when implemented effectively can harness the power of both genomic and clinical data and serve as a critical bridge between basic and applied research, linking laboratory to patient and getting to cures faster. As science and technology leaders work to address the many challenges facing U.S. biobanks logistical, technical, ethical, financial, intellectual property, and IT BioBank Central will serve as an accurate and timely source of knowledge and news about biorepositories and their role in research and drug development. The Web site also provides a working group venue, patient and public education programs, and a forum for international collaboration and harmonization of best practices.
