The BIH Biobank Core Unit will store a wide range of different types of specimens collected in BIH research projects, cohort studies and trials as well as from Charité patients under safe and quality-controlled conditions and will make them available to BIH researchers. The BIH Biobank will also provide advice and consultation for BIH projects with biospecimens regarding design, planning and implementation of studies (e.g. SOPs), data protection issues, and ethical issues. A number of services are or will be offered, such as tissue sectioning and histology as well as immunohistochemistry, DNA or RNA extraction, etc. The BIH Biobank Core Unit is one biobank at two locations (Charité CVK and MDC) with a central database / laboratory information system (LIMS).
