Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
'The Preparatory Phase for a pan-European Biobanking and Biomolecular Resources Research Infrastructure (BBMRI) will focus on technical, legal, governance, and financial issues to • prepare to construct BBMRI, building on existing biobanks, resources and technologies, specifically complemented with innovative components and properly embedded into European scientific, ethical, legal and societal frameworks, • provide the concept for a key resource to increase excellence and efficacy in biomedical sciences, drug development and public health, • expand and secure competitiveness of European research and industry in a global context, • develop a sustainable financial framework. Biomedical quality-assessed samples and data as well as biomolecular resources and molecular analysis tools are essential for academic and industry-driven research to treat and prevent human diseases. Although currently established national biobanks and biomolecular resources are a unique European strength, valuable collections typically suffer from fragmentation of the European biobanking-related research community. This hampers the collation of biological samples and data from different biobanks required to achieve sufficient statistical power. Moreover, it results in duplication of effort and jeopardises sustainability due to the lack of long-term funding. BBMRI will comprise: • biobanks of different formats (collections of blood, DNA, tissue, etc., together with medical, environmental, life-style and follow-up data), • biomolecular resources (antibody and affinity binder collections, ORF clone collections, siRNA libraries, proteins, cellular resources etc.), • enabling technologies and high-throughput analysis platforms and molecular tools to decipher gene, protein and metabolite functions and their interactions, • harmonized standards for sample collection, storage, preanalytics and analysis • harmonized databases and biocomputing infrastructure, • ethical, legal and societal'
Introduzione (Teaser)
Biomedical research is highly dependent on the availability of human samples. A pan-European effort for an integrated biobank infrastructure will facilitate research and development.
Descrizione progetto (Article)
Biological samples of healthy subjects or patients alongside clinical data constitute the foundation of most biomedical studies. Such samples are central to unravelling the complexity of the human body and identifying novel therapeutic targets for challenging diseases such as cancer.
The scope of the EU-funded http://bbmri-eric.eu/ (BBMRI) (Biobanking and biomolecular resources research infrastructure) effort was to integrate existing biobanks and resources across Europe into a pan-European infrastructure. The consortium comprised 54 participants and 224 associated organisations from 33 countries.
The BBMRI consortium has integrated existing quality controlled biobanks, biomolecular resources and enabling technologies into a novel pan-European Biomedical Research Infrastructure-European Research Infrastructure Consortium (BBMRI-ERIC). ERIC is a legal entity with legal personality and full legal capacity recognised in all EU Member States.
BBMRI-ERIC is centrally coordinated by Austria and provides national hubs, established in participating countries, to grant electronic access to resources, support and expertise. Each hub was responsible for granting the national scientific community access to these resources.
The project successfully provided comprehensive information, standard operational procedures and codes of conduct for European biobanks. A step by step access policy on human biological samples and associated data was implemented as well as an inventory of existing major population-based and clinical (disease-orientated) biobanks in Europe. Furthermore, the activities of BBMRI ensured that technologies and reagents were available to make optimal use of patient sample collections. A new http://www.molmeth.org (database) for molecular methods was also introduced.
One of the major challenges was the generation of an IT-infrastructure capable of linking the existing biobank data with patient registries and clinical information. In this context, partners established a publicly accessible, common web-based portal as a centralised information site for European technology resources and platforms serving the major biobanks. The portal is functional and available at the http://www.bbmri-wp4.eu/resources (BBMRI website).
BBMRI is anticipated to operate as a bridge between sample donors and scientists performing biomedical research. Equally importantly, it will act as a firewall preventing certain types of personal information from flowing inappropriately between donors and researchers.
With adequate support and technical advancement, a pan-European biobanking infrastructure should also facilitate the new concept of personalised medicine. In this context, biobank-derived material could be used to develop new diagnostic tools and therapeutic agents to identify disease subgroups and specifically target them.
The activities of the BBMRI consortium received considerable attention with broad coverage in the press. Overall, a central European biobank infrastructure will undoubtedly support current research efforts and hopefully lead to improved health products and services.
