As genomic research into the causes and treatments of disease moves rapidly into the era of personalized medicine, an increasing number of biomedical studies are searching for biomarkers to aid in the rapid and efficient prediction of susceptibility, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of disease tailored to an individual.
Although the term biomarker is a relatively recent development, the Victorian Cancer Biobank has been banking samples of suitable quality for biomarker studies since 2000. The VCB has future proofed thousands of samples by storing mirror collections at both -80oC and liquid nitrogen temperatures, which are routinely called for in biomarker studies.
