It presents a host of opportunities and challenges. Funding patterns have changed as biobanks have evolved; in a comparative study of more than 100 biobanks around the world, the majority of biobanks were found to be stand-alone, and were entirely funded by the government of the country. Around 70% of biobanks are stand-alone, whereas only 30% are partnered with other biobanks or institutions. With globalization and a growing interest in trans-national sharing of biobank resources, there is an increasing push to harmonize biobank processes and regulations. The process of setting up a new biobank is the most costly phase of a biobank's development and lifespan. The maintenance cost of a biobank is marginal compared to the cost of set-up. Scope * A comprehensive study of 37 major biobanks in the world along with the current trends in biobanking. * A detailed account of population-based biobanks, disease-based biobanks, brain biobanks, stem cell biobanking, twin registries, children biobanks and many national biobanks. * A comparative study of the major issues concerning biobanks including funding, harmonization, the cost of biobanking, partnership structure, and regulatory and ethical issues. * In-depth analysis of the major developments in the leading segments of biobanks with key emphasis on major challenges in the biobanking sector. Reasons to buy * Evaluate major biobanks in the world, their service providers, research collaborations and private sector involvement. * Analyze issues of funding, harmonization, the cost of biobanking, and partnership structure that determine strength and limitation of a biobank. * Develop strategic initiatives by understanding the key focus of research of the leading biobanks. * Accelerate and strengthen your market position by identifying key biobanks for mergers, acquisitions and strategic partnerships to accelerate research and development. * Devise better strategies through the understanding of key drivers and barriers in the market. * Develop understanding on recent developments in biobanking regulatory frameworks and ethical issues like informed consent, withdrawal of ownership, confidentiality and commercialization.
