biorepository

A biorepository is a facility that collects, stores, and manages biological samples such as blood, tissue, and DNA for research and medical use. These samples are carefully preserved so they can be used later to understand diseases, develop treatments, or conduct scientific studies. Think of it as a specialized bank for biological materials, ensuring they remain viable and well-organized for future research efforts. Biorepositories play a crucial role in advancing personalized medicine and improving healthcare outcomes.
