Blood Collection for COM/BSBS

Summary

The objective of this biospecimen collection protocol is the acquisition of blood from adult volunteers. These biospecimens will be transferred to the College of Medicine (COM)/Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences (BSBS) research scientists and their research teams for testing according to their separate IRB-approved/exempted protocols. These separate IRBapproved protocols cannot be for genetic testing.

Detailed Description

Research scientists of the University of Central Florida College of Medicine (COM) and Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences (BSBS) conduct laboratory studies in biomedical and translational research for the purpose of understanding human disease and developing innovative methods for diagnosing, measuring, or treating disease or disease symptoms. The key research divisions are cancer, cardiovascular, immunity and pathogenesis, neuroscience, and molecular microbiology. Frequently, these studies require human blood (or its derivatives) for testing of assays and devices.
