Biomarker Lab and Biorepository
The Biomarker Lab & Biorepository handles the sample processing and analyses of biospecimens collected during clinical trials. In a single day the wet labe may receive hundreds of samples for processing, and in some cases test plasma and Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), the liquid around the brain and spinal cord, for Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers.
The Biorepository serves as a national library for federally funded AD trials. This primarily involves long term storage and sharing of study samples and data. This newly expanded facility now has the capacity to hold 248 minus 80ºC freezers which can hold 11.57 million samples.
