Unveiling Biobank Power: A Film by the Austrian, German, and Swiss BBMRI Nodes

BBMRI.at, the German Biobank Node (GBN), and the Swiss Biobanking Platform (SBP), all “national nodes” of the European Biobank Research Infrastructure BBMRI-ERIC, have jointly launched a new film highlighting the crucial role of professional biobanks in advancing scientific research and fostering groundbreaking discoveries.

With the statement ‘Professional biobanks can make your life easier’, the two-minute animated film is aimed at researchers encouraging them to work with professional biobanks when using samples and data for their research project. The biobanks in the GBN, BBMRI.at and SBP networks offer comprehensive advice and support, work according to international standards to ensure superior sample quality, adhere to strict security protocols, and are committed to long-term research success.

This film serves not only as an educational tool, but also as a celebration of the collaborative spirit between the BBMRI-ERIC nodes and the innovation that drives the scientific community. As the film shows, collaborative efforts can accelerate research and pave the way for a healthier future.

BBMRI.at strongly encourages all biobanks in the Austrian BBMRI node to promote and share this film through their own communication channels. If you are interested in using the film for your communication, please send an email to contact@bbmri.at (Mag. Cornelia Stumptner).
