I+D+i
La investigación biomédica requiere para su desarrollo muestras biológicas y datos clínicos asociados. Para responder a ello, el Biobanco del SSPA mantiene una constante renovación e innovación de sus procedimientos, desarrollando una I+D+i propia que repercute en una mayor calidad de las muestras y en la mejora de los procedimientos, contribuyendo directamente a un incremento de la calidad de la investigación biomédica.
Actualmente el Biobanco del SSPA tiene varias líneas de I+D+i en Biobancos:
- Virtualización del Biobanco del SSPA.
- Catálogos digitales de muestras biológicas humanas y sus datos asociados.
- Modelo de datos e interoperabilidad de las muestras biológicas humanas y sus datos asociados.
- Registro Andaluz de Donantes de Muestras para Investigación Biomédica y participación ciudadana.
- Desarrollo de nuevos modelos de servicio.
- Generación de líneas celulares pluripotentes humanas de patologías poco representadas en los catálogos disponibles.
- Buenas prácticas en el manejo de líneas celulares y acreditación de la capacitación técnica.
- Caracterización de nuevos biomodelos de organoides.
- Nuevas metodologías de preservación de biomodelos.
- Aspectos ético-legales de la gestión de biomodelos.
Estas líneas son el resultado de:
- Preguntas de investigación o necesidades identificadas en algunas de las áreas de trabajo del Biobanco del SSPA: calidad, comunicación, área tecnológica y preservación.
- Los objetivos comprometidos con las Plataformas Tecnológicas.
- Colaboraciones con empresas, grupos de investigación o grupos de trabajo.
- Desarrollos o validación de productos/protocolos/tecnologías.
- De la participación en ensayos clínicos o consorcios de investigación.
