ISBER is Accepting Abstracts for the ISBER 2020 Annual Meeting & Exhibits

Submission Deadline: December 23, 2019

Biobanks have been portrayed as having the promise to unlock biological processes and promote a better tomorrow. Following the advent of the human genome project, biobanks have become the bedrock to accelerating scientific discoveries. Stemming from the success stories is a blueprint that places the biobank community at the forefront of research infrastructure for many generations to come.

In April 2020, global leaders and disruptors from the broad spectrum of scientific community will converge at ISBER 2020 to address the impact of biobanks on science and how the related discoveries are establishing a roadmap to extend our knowledge network. From engaging with vulnerable populations to advances in artificial intelligence, experts at ISBER 2020 will highlight critical advances in biobanking and, for the first time, host a debate to discuss the utilization of samples and data in the modern era.

Our ability to transform health and research depends on the voices of all individuals willing to contribute and challenge the roadmap that biobanks are paving.

ISBER is currently accepting abstract submissions for oral and poster presentation at the annual meeting. We welcome the submission of abstracts in fields related to the use of environmental and biological repositories. Special consideration will be given to abstracts that align with the meeting theme, “Roadmap to Scientific Discovery”, and the meeting topics of:

  • Moving Science Forward/ Translating Impact Into Growth
  • Ethics, Education, and Engagement: Including Under-Served and Vulnerable Communities in Research
  • Sample Management and Biobanking Operations
  • Biobank Informatics and Datafication of Biospecimens
  • Biomarkers, Diagnostics, and Therapeutics
