چکیده
Due to the requirement for comprehensive clinical research efforts in China, the importance of biobanking in modern clinical research is outlined in this overview. Hospitals, universities, and research institutes have been well organized as fundamental resources for Chinese biobanking initiatives and the resulting bio-sample collections. Here, a brief history and time line of development of biobanking in China will be introduced, as well as strategic designs for future biobanking development.

We argue that although recent biobanking policies encourage various forms of engagement with publics to ensure legitimacy, different biobanks conceptualize their engagement strategies very ...
متن کاملA strategic approach to comprehensive sample management.
Research samples are invaluable scientific assets that support the foundation of new drug discovery. Research suggests that standardized management of these materials can contribute to budget savings, cost avoidance, and process efficiencies that can reduce development time. Unfortunately, many research organizations still employ a siloed approach where research samples are scattered between mu...
