Duke University Medical Centre to Lead a Workshop on “The Organic Development of a Sustainable Academic Biobank” During the 9th Annual Biobanking Conference
SMi Group are delighted to announce that industry expert Mary-Beth Joshi, Director, Duke University Medial Centre will lead a pre-conference workshop in London on the 24th September.
London, United Kingdom, May 30, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Workshop Overview:
Workshop B – Tuesday 24th September 2019.
Academic research institutions are complex and adaptive systems that are well equipped for multi-dimensional to large scale research initiatives. The design and development of biobanks within a single academic institution is a significant challenge facing academic biobanking. Traditionally, biobank design is undertaken in a linear direction in which established processes and controls drive the alignment. This method is often met with resistance and fear of reduction in sample control in terms of individual investigator’s specific research interests. This discussion will inform the audience on the organic evolution and emergence of a novel, innovative and adaptable academic biobank from a departmental service to a research support model by fostering relationships across cross-functional partnership comprised of Research Administration, Clinical Research, Information systems and Regulatory Oversight & Research Initiatives.
Benefits of Attending:
- Learn to look beyond linear directed biobanking implementation
- Learn how to develop and maintain a sustainable business plan
- Optimization of resources by focusing on biobanking core competencies
- Lessons learned from an organic growth experience
