Integrated Biobank of Luxembourg Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Integrated Biobank of Luxembourg (RRID:SCR_004211) | IBBL | biomaterial supply resource, tissue bank, material resource | An independent, not-for-profit biobanking and biotechnology foundation designed to facilitate new, high quality medical research. The IBBL collects, stores, and analyzes biological samples and associated data, which are then made available to research organizations investigating new treatments for diseases. It houses a biospecimen collection and biorepository that contains high quality tissues and maintains quality control of the specimens and the clinical data associated with the tissue samples, while maintaining biobanking ethical standards. It also provides biorefinery analyses and research services that can make analytes from tissues (e.g. DNA, RNA and protein), maintains technology for high throughput gene sequencing and gene expression, and conducts biospecimen research. An informatics platform maintains the clinical and biospecimens data in a secure fashion for additional analysis. Samples are collected by IBBL personnel from hospitals in a targeted manner. The IBBL collaborates with research and health organizations in North America, Europe and the Middle East, and with the major international biobanking societies. | biobank, biorepository, clinical data, tissue, dna, rna, protein, cancer, type 2 diabetes, parkinsons disease, biotechnology | is listed by: One Mind Biospecimen Bank Listing | Cancer, Type 2 diabetes, Parkinson's disease | Public | nlx_23314 | SCR_004211 | 2026-02-13 10:55:23 | 5 | |||||||

MEGASNPHUNTER Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
MEGASNPHUNTER (RRID:SCR_009287) | MEGASNPHUNTER | software resource, software application | Software application that takes case-control genotype data as input and produces a ranked list of multi-SNP interactions. In particular, the whole genome is first partitioned into multiple short subgenomes and a boosting tree classifier is built for each subgenomes based on multi-SNP interactions and then used to measure the importance of SNPs. The method keeps relatively more important SNPs from all subgenomes and let them compete with each other in the same way at the next level. The competition terminates when the number of selected SNPs is less than the size of a subgenome.
