Popis: The Hannover Unified Biobank (HUB) was established in 2012 as the central biobank of the Hannover Medical School (MHH) to provide an infrastructure for the standardised collection and storage of liquid biosamples and associated data in the context of research projects and clinical studies. For the comprehensive collection of tissue samples from the clinical routine the HUB cooperates with the MHH Institute of Pathology. All samples are connected with the associated clinical data stored in the ECRDW (Enterprise Clinical Research Data Warehouse) of the MHH. Headed by Prof. Dr. Thomas Illig the HUB developed into one of the biggest state of the art clinical biobanks in Germany and today stores about 2.88 Mio samples (mainly FFPE tissue and blood derived liquid samples) of a wide range of diseases.
