About ISBER
ISBER is the leading international forum that
addresses the technical, legal, ethical, and managerial issues relevant to
repositories of biological and environmental specimens.
ISBER educational resources and meetings focus on technical issues such as
quality assurance and control, regulations, human subject privacy and
confidentiality issues, and provide information about sources of equipment and
expertise. ISBER assists vendors in recognizing the needs of repositories for
the development of new products and services, and provides information about
existing repositories and their specimen collections.
Now, on the threshold of exponential new developments in molecular biology,
nanotechnology, environmental toxicology, and computerized data management, all
organizations need an active interchange of ideas and expertise. Careful
management ensures that specimen collections will be available for study as new
biomarkers emerge and more sensitive measurement technologies become pertinent.
We invite subcomponents of government, academia, the private sector, and
manufacturers as well as interested individuals to become active participants in
ISBER and to exchange knowledge bases on repository issues. ISBER is an
international society, with membership from 24 countries worldwide.
The goals of the Society include:
 Global
dissemination of information on repository management issues;
Education
and sharing of information within the society;
Providing a
voice for repositories on shipping, human subjects,
legal and ethical issues, etc;
Ongoing
development of Best Practices guidelines; and
Provision of
centralized information resources for existing repositories
