Creation of the BioBank, Early Detection and Discovery Biomarkers

To establish a multidisciplinary research structure that facilitates projects that bridge
specialties that normally may or may not interact. The tissue bank will build the platform
for a novel application of translational research that links cutting edge molecular
laboratory techniques to clinical outcome studies in a fast and direct manner. Tissue banks
can be used for numerous discovery applications such as the identification and structural
characterization of human genes, expression analysis, or discovery proteomics. Biological
specimens, when coupled with standardized treatment and outcome data, will be essential
resources for the identification, characterization, and validation of biomarkers that are
predictive of disease and treatment.
