Biobanking is a Crucial Component of Research
Mark Hughes Foundation Centre for Brain Cancer Research shared Hunter Medical Research Institute (HMRI)’s post on LinkedIn:
“Biobanking is such a crucial component of research, and we’re so proud of the MHF Biobank and the work that Cassandra Griffin and her team do. Samples from over 400 brain cancer patients are informing the work of researchers locally, nationally and now, internationally. It’s a vital part of the brain cancer puzzle.”
Quoting Hunter Medical Research Institute (HMRI)’s post:
“Cassandra Griffin leads one of Australia’s most valuable scientific resources – the NSW Regional Biospecimen Services, a program of the University of Newcastle housed at HMRI. From local donors to international research teams, Cass’s work connects people, samples, and science.
Her team manages everything from blood and tissue samples to rare postmortem brain donations, generously supported by the Mark Hughes Foundation Centre for Brain Cancer Research. These resources play a vital role in advancing research and improving health outcomes.
To celebrate National Science Week, Cass let us peek behind the scenes at what a biobanking and clinical research manager’s typical day involves!”
