BCBI will be linked to Biobank Ireland Trust, the national biobank network of the country.
BCBI store high-quality, ethically-collected blood and bone marrow samples from blood cancer patients.
Selected samples are analysed by the latest genomic techniques providing the research community with invaluable data on what genetic mutations cause the cancer.
