Summary

89% Informative

Biobanking started as far back as the 19th century and can speed up medical research by providing researchers with a vast amount of health care data and samples whenever they need them.

The BBMRI-ERIC community comprises 24 national networks of biobanks from across Europe , plus the International Agency for Research on Cancer , part of the World Health Organization .

The aim is greater international preparedness for potential future health threats like pandemics.

Many infectious diseases originate in animals and can be transmitted to humans, a process known as zoonosis.

By monitoring and maintaining animal health, scientists can identify and control potential sources of zoonotic diseases before they spread to humans.

Changes in the environment, such as deforestation or climate change, can destroy animal habitats and make it easier for humans to come into contact with disease-carrying animals.
