Great Lakes Biorepository Research Network
The GLBRN is a society of institutions organized to raise the level of practices in managing the collection, quality, processing, storage and distribution of biospecimens; ensure that stored biospecimens are managed with a high degree of stewardship that increases the opportunity for use; expedite access to biospecimens; provide access to biospecimens at reasonable research rates; and inspire institutional collaboration in research.
As a member of the GLBRN, biospecimens are available to Michigan State University investigators. To being the process, download the request form from the GLBRN website. For additional questions, please contact Charles Haseman, the MSU representative to GLBRN.
