For Researchers & Biobanks

Traditional specimen locator platforms often fall short, functioning merely as collection directories rather than providing detailed sample-level information. This limitation forces researchers to spend significant time and resources contacting multiple biobanks to identify samples that match their study criteria. Biobanks are therefore burdened with managing inquiries that rarely lead to meaningful sample utilization, compounding operational inefficiencies in an already resource-strapped environment.

Recognizing these inefficiencies, the Specimen Center was designed to facilitate precise and efficient biosample discovery. Researchers can now search multiple biobank inventories at an unprecedented level of granularity, accessing harmonized, de-identified metadata that ensures clarity and usability. Whether searching for “carcinomas,” “malignant neoplasms,” or “adenocarcinomas,” the platform ensures that users find exactly what they need, regardless of terminology variations. Advanced filtering capabilities allow searches by specimen type, donor demographics, diagnoses, or therapeutic areas, with customizations and pre-sets to further refine results. Additionally, AI-driven insights and recommendations enhance the user experience, enabling researchers to locate the most relevant samples with ease.

For Researchers & Biobanks

While the Specimen Center empowers researchers, it is equally committed to supporting biobanks. Unlike traditional biospecimen brokerage models that often require biobanks to relinquish control or obscure their visibility, the Specimen Center places autonomy at the forefront. Biobanks retain full oversight of their collections, deciding which samples to list and managing inquiries directly. Transparent peer-to-peer interactions foster trust, while intuitive dashboards will provide actionable insights into inventory trends, customer interactions, and transaction statuses. By enabling biobanks to maintain ownership of their resources while enhancing operational transparency, the platform offers a sustainable, modular solution tailored to a biobank's specific needs.

The Specimen Center’s operational tools are designed to help biobanks better manage the complex data and workflows surrounding biosample inquiries and transactions. We understand the value of insights that exist between and around sample acquisition and aim to make these actionable for providers, enabling them to focus on meaningful engagements while maintaining clarity over their resources. By simplifying processes and offering tools that adapt to unique biobank needs, the platform supports smarter decision-making and fosters collaboration.

In Short

At its core, the Specimen Center is more than just a platform—it is a catalyst for change in the biobanking ecosystem. By breaking down barriers in biosample research and fostering direct connections between stakeholders, it opens new opportunities for innovation and collaboration. Whether you’re a researcher seeking advanced tools for study design or a biobank striving to increase visibility and utilization, the Specimen Center is designed to meet your unique needs.
