Would you like to check your biobank’s compliance with governance and quality issues?
The Biobank SQAN is an innovative web-based solution to help biobanks efficiently identify areas and means of improvement.
We are quite ready to make this solution publicly available. We are now interested in having some beta testers to tailor this solution to the real needs and interests of the biobanking community.
Application details:
- The beta test is open to swiss biobanks only
- As we need a wide range of biobanks (public, private, institution, universities, research, diagnostic, vet, human, etc.), we will select a limited number of beta testers in each domain.
- If you are selected as a beta tester, we will contact you in the course of January 2019.
