The Brain Bank Platform and brain sample collections is the basic structure in trans-
lational psychiatric research. There are currently three nodes linked to the Fun-
dacin Sant Joan de Du, Universidad del País Vasco and Universidad de Cantabria
groups.
é
The platform amasses samples with quality criteria, donor’s clinical data and toxi-
cological data. The bank has taken in new samples and transferred out 72 samples.
The Fundacin Sant Joan de Du has successfully earned biobank accreditation and
is now not part of the Biobanks Network created by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III.
The process of incorporating donors and for obtaining samples to be transferred out
for national and international scientific projects continues in 2013.
