The Cleveland Clinic BioRepository (CC-BioR) has named two recipients of the 2024 CC-BioR Award, who will work directly with the CC-BioR to collect and store biospecimens and related data from 1,000 research participants over the next one to two years.
The award is given to two teams annually and provides support including participant recruitment, specimen storage, and sample organization and analysis. Each award is co-led by a basic and clinical researcher, with the long-term goal of enabling researchers to collect preliminary data and attract external funding.
The CC-BioR surpassed more than 800,000 specimens collected this year. The CC-BioR supports Cleveland Clinic's global research growth and sustainability through supporting collecting and storing data and biospecimens, one of the most critical steps in the research process.
The 2024 awardees are:
Obesity Surgery BioRepository - Ali Aminian, MD, and Daniel Rotroff, PhD.
CCF Sarcoma Biorepository (CC-BioSarc) - Zachary Burke, MD, and Jacob Scott, MD, DPhil.
