BRI has assembled one of the world’s largest collections of blood samples and medical information from people with T1D. To create this biorepository, we spent nearly two decades gathering samples from research volunteers and cataloging their health information.
Now researchers across the globe turn to us for samples.
“A researcher might be studying a question that only relates to, say, a person who was diagnosed within five years,” says Cate Speake, PhD. “We send them samples so they can answer targeted questions that move research forward.”
