At Puget Sound Blood Center, when we talk about the work of our Research Institute, what we are really talking about is saving lives. Many recognize the lifesaving work of the Blood Center for its role in maintaining the blood supply for Western Washington. But that is only the beginning of how the Blood Center touches the lives of people all over the world. The Blood Center is widely considered the premier knowledge source on blood research and transfusion medicine and has been developing cutting-edge technologies and establishing best practices in this field for over sixty-six years. Medical institutions worldwide rely on the Blood Center''s research work. Scientific equipment manufacturers, as well as pharmaceutical companies turn to the Blood Center for help in developing effective equipment and successful therapies that are saving lives around the world every day.

http://www.psoriasis.org/netcommunity/act_biobank

The National Psoriasis Victor Henschel BioBank is a collection of biological samples and clinical information used by qualified scientists to further the field of psoriasis genetics. Once completed, the National Psoriasis BioBank will be the largest collection of psoriasis DNA samples in the world, moving us closer to understanding the causes of psoriatic diseases, discovering more and better treatments and finding a cure. The BioBank is currently collecting DNA from people with and without psoriasis and/or psoriatic arthritis. Simply by donating your DNA����??a blood sample and a swab of your cheek cells����??and providing us with your medical history, you can help us find a cure. Samples will be processed and stored at a private laboratory and not at the National Psoriasis Foundation. The National Psoriasis BioBank is part of the Genetic Alliance BioBank (GA BioBank), a centralized repository for the collection, storage and distribution of biological samples (including DNA, serum, cells and tissues) and clinical data for genetic researchers.

http://brainhealthregistry.org/

A website aimed at recruiting and assessing subjects for all types of neuroscience studies with the internet. The hope is to accelerate various types of observational studies and clinical trials, and also reduce costs. They are interested in having people, including healthy subjects of all ages, join the registry. Joining only takes a few minutes. The web-based project is designed to speed up cures for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and other brain disorders. It uses online questionnaires and online neuropsychological tests (which are very much like online brain games).
