Director: Scott Jewell, Ph.D. The Biospecimen and Biorepository Shared Resource (BBR) procures and provides
malignant and normal tissues from solid tumors to the OSUCCC membership. The BBR is part of a large tissue bank network at OSU entitled "The Human
Tissue Resource Network" that also includes: The NCI-funded Cooperative
Human Tissue Network, the NCI-funded Cancer and Leukemia Group B
(CALGB) Pathology Coordinating Office and specimen banks, the
NCI-funded AIDS Malignancy Bank, the Tissue Archives Services and the
Research Histology Core Facility. The BBR efficiently accomplishes both basic science and clinical
collection of materials that are fundamentally different yet both
important to the goals of the OSUCCC. The BBR staff
provides quality control of the research specimen and direct
interaction with pathologists and OSUCCC investigators to better assist
in procurement of tissues and to foster hypothesis-driven cancer
research.
