Setting up of a Bio-bank/Bio-repository at NBRC, Manesar with 7 peripheral sites. The collected samples such as blood, tissues, saliva and other samples will be temporarily stored at peripheral sites and transferred to NBRC for long-term storage. These samples can be used for biomarkers, genomics and proteomics-based studies at a later stage
To conduct basic biology research in order to identify possible risk factors and early diagnostic markers including imaging markers.
