Biobanking
Brain Cancer Biobanking Australia
This is an initiative of Robyn Leonard (Founder) whose daughter Lucie died from brain cancer. Tissue specimens from children are rare and finding appropriate samples in institutions around the country is difficult. Procedures to access samples also differ across the various institutions. Linking the various biobanks across Australia into a single network and portal will enable research by providing ready access to specimens. The Isabella and Marcus Fund supported this initiative from 2016 to 2019. This project was also supported by RCD Foundation, Mark Hughes Foundation, DDB Remedy, Roche and the Cancer Council of NSW.
