Note publique d'information : Biobanking, an emerging field supported by academia, industry and health administrators
alike, is distinctly different today from the practice that once defined it. The science
of Biobanking, which initially involved simply storing blood or tissue samples in
a freezer, is now a highly sophisticated field of research, and expected to grow exponentially
over the next decade or two. This book aims to serve the purpose of further enriching
the available literature on Biobanking, by offering unique and more useful collection
of ideas for the future. The book outlines the experiences of developing modern Biobanking
repositories in different countries, whilst covering specific topics regarding the
many aspects of Biobanking. This book will be of interest to a wide range of readers
including: academics, students, volunteers and advocates of patients’ rights
