BioVU is a research resource providing a View into biology at the level of DNA and other important macromolecules. BioVU has two major components. The first is a repository of DNA samples (extracted from discarded blood samples) that are coded solely by a Research Unique Identifier (RUI) derived from the Medical Record Number (MRN) using a one-way hash function. This is a computer algorithm that creates a transformation of each MRN such that the resulting RUI (which is in this instance is a 512 byte identifier) is unique, and has the property that it is not possible to infer or compute the MRN that generated it. As of early 2009, over 50,000 DNA samples were in the biobank, with new samples being added at the rate of approximately 700 per week.

The mission of the Innovative Translational Research Shared Resource (ITR) is to advance the translation of basic and clinical research into improved clinical therapies by facilitating clinical discoveries and managing laboratory and clinical data exchange between researchers. The ITR has partnered with the Personalized Cancer Medicine Initiative (PCMI) and the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center (VICC) to characterize the molecular changes present in tumors. With a focus in clinical sample preparation and tumor genetic analyses, the ITR uses the most advanced laboratory techniques to uncover the genetic uniqueness of each patient''s tumor for research. This knowledge will lead to improved clinical therapies and a more personalized cancer care that will save lives and improve patient outcomes. The ITR gives scientific and technical assistance to clinical and laboratory researchers interested in experimentation using human tumor tissues or cell lines. In addition to our expertise in genetic analyses, the ITR is also interested in partnering with clinical investigators to study clinical phenotypes in a research laboratory. These studies are tailored to the needs of the clinical investigator.
