Scope of Service
BioCoR is not a biorepository but a core resource in biopreservation of biospecimens that serves the conduct of all basic, translational and clinical research that utilize biospecimens.

As a resource, BioCoR provides three basic functions for individual researchers and institutions (academic, industrial, and government):

Service Resource for those who need assistance in developing standard biopreservation protocols and techniques
Research Resource where new methods of preserving biospecimens and technology to improve biospecimen quality are developed, directly feeding back into the service resource
Education/Training/Development Resource for educating individuals and institutions on the scientific basis for preservation, teaching best practices and supplying protocol-specific as a service to the community
