DANISH NATIONAL BIOBANK

The main purpose of the Danish National Biobank is to give scientists from Denmark and abroad easy access to more than 25 million biological samples... Over the years the Danish society has invested in building a range of national registers containing information about all residents in Denmark. Similarly, the Danish health system has routinely collected biological material from a large number of individuals. Scientists have the possibility to link information about biological samples in Danish biobanks with the large amount of information contained in the Danish administrative registers... The Danish National Biobank stores millions of samples available for use in specific research projects.
