One aspect of the University of Arizona Health Sciences’ mission is to improve health and human potential through scientific investigations to solve critical health care problems. In support of this mission, a standardized and regulatory-compliant; privacy protected repository for fluid and tissue biospecimen processing and storage was created. This initiative allows for collaborations between investigators and allows internal and external investigators to reduce costs, redundancies, and risks associated with alternative bio-banking strategies. The UAHS Biorepository provides support for basic, clinical. and epidemiological research studies involving specimen collection processing, annotation, and inventory management.
Biobank Services
The Biorepository serves as the coordinated infrastructure for the standardized collection, processing and banking, and allocation of high-quality biospecimens.
Access to Current Collections
The UAHS Biorepository consist of various collections from various collaborators that maybe available for other investigators to request.
Specimen & Data Collections
For assistance with specimen and data collection for your own protocol please contact the Clinical and Translational Sciences Research Center (CaTS).
