Abstract

The Guidelines call for and delineate standardised approaches, from collecting and storing samples to using and sharing data. Lastly, the Guidelines illustrate which international and national regulations have to be considered. This document aims to be a resource that guides the reader through the fundamental decision processes for establishing, managing and implementing biobanks. Only through a harmonised and standardised approach within a global network will we be able to fully utilise the potential of biobanks across the world.
