A Biobank collects, preserves, and disseminates human samples (such as blood, tissue, saliva, urine, etc.) alongside associated clinical health information for use by researchers.
Established in 2016, the GUBB is a pivotal resource that promotes research collaborations by ethically collecting, storing, and providing researchers with a diverse array of human samples and clinical health information, all with patient consent obtained for use in research projects. Currently, with 3081 enrolled patients, our expanding repository showcases a breakdown of cancer cases - 59% prostate cancer, 16% bladder cancer, 14% testicular cancer, 11% kidney cancer, and 0.2% penile cancer, offering a comprehensive spectrum of GU clinical cancer data.
