What is biobanking, and why is it important in modern medical research?
Biobanking refers to the systematic collection, processing, storage, and management of biological samples, such as blood, tissue, DNA, and other bodily fluids, along with associated health and demographic data. These repositories serve as critical resources for medical research, enabling scientists to study disease mechanisms, develop new therapies, and advance personalized medicine. By preserving high-quality samples under controlled conditions, biobanks ensure that researchers have access to reliable materials for longitudinal studies and reproducible experiments.
