GRANTS Funds multi-disciplinary, multi-institutional collaborations that will make Arizona a leader in biomedical research. ABRC is committed to enhancing and furthering bioscience and clinical research in Arizona and has provided over $100 million in research funding to help understand diseases better and work towards finding treatments and cures.
Arizona Public Cord Blood Banking Program The State of Arizona has had a long-standing interest in advancing public cord blood banking to target the collection for minority groups and increase the availability of cord blood units for transplantation and for preclinical research to Arizona scientists. ABRC partnered with the University of Colorado Public Cord Blood Bank (UCCBB). The cord blood units are collected at hospitals throughout Arizona and shipped to UCCBB and made available through the National Marrow Donor Programs for transplantation..
Educational Symposiums and Workshops ABRC has been providing in-depth education and policy guidance for clinical researchers across Arizona. Previous events include topics on use of biospecimens in research, patient registries, grant writing and clinical research compliance. ABRC continues to plan for future educational opportunities with topics based on feedback from the clinical research community.

Arizona Biospecimen Consortium and Locator To meet the needs of researchers seeking high quality specimens for their research, ABRC has developed the Arizona Biospecimen Locator (ABL), a centralized, web-based biospecimen database. This on-line tool allows researchers worldwide to browse query and request biospecimens stored in physical repositories at member Arizona hospitals and research facilities. The ABL system displays information for researchers to locate biospecimens suitable for their research, including disease, type of specimen, preservation type, anatomic source, and demographics of participants.
ABRC from its active involvement in the Arizona Biosciences Roadmap and Arizona Translational Research Pathway efforts recognized the importance of providing both the capacity and the quality of biospecimens for researchers to accelerate the pace of translational research From outreach to hospitals and the research community, ABRC learned that a comprehensive and coordinated effort was needed to raise the capacity of existing and emerging biospecimen banks across the state and manage the interface with the community To achieve this goal, ABRC funded the development of the Arizona Biospecimen Consortium to guide the development of a centralized, web-based database of biospecimens collected and stored at participating Arizona hospitals and medical centers and govern its processes
Advancing the Consortium Effort Advancing a State-of-the- Art Biospecimen IT System
Advancing the Consortium Effort ABRC decided it was important to work first with a geographically focused group given the time and effort needed to facilitate information system specifications, standards development and governance approaches. The Pilot consortium members represent legal, scientific and research personnel from each of the participating sites:
Governance Committee Addresses policy and governance issues Standards Committee Addresses standardization and quality assurance issues Standardize policies, forms and procedures to ensure smooth participation in a statewide biospecimen effort Create a standardized Material Transfer Agreement template to be used by all sites providing and receiving biospecimens through the ABL Develop a standardized approach for researchers seeking access to biospecimens through the ABL Set policies for new participants to join the consortium Review and finalize data elements for the data fields within the ABL Develop a quality assurance process for the consortium and the ABL Standardize standard operating procedures for collection, processing and storage of biospecimens based on best practices Identify and develop education and training efforts
Advancing a State-of-the-Art Biospecimen IT System Public can browse information on biospecimens available for research Research staff can request biospecimens Institution where biospecimen is stored reviews request Institution approves request and ships biospecimen Researcher receives biospecimens & if requested, returns unused biospecimen
