Abstract

Biobanks are evolving, as is shown by the emergence of what are known as “Next Generation Tumor Biobanks” (NGTB). In addition, some research activities are being dissociated from healthcare (diagnostic, prognostic, targeted therapy, immunotherapy) and from the development of genomic medicine. Many biobanks are taking on new roles, becoming centers of expertise in a wide variety of fields (clinical, pathology, genomics, bio-statistics, bio-informatics, and even mathematics), as well as repositories for the collection and storage of samples.
