Collaboration with the OPDC
OPDC BIOSAMPLE AND DATA ACCESS COMMITTEE STATEMENT
March 2025
I am happy to let you know that that OPDC Discovery cohort is now able to receive new applications for data and related biosamples.
We have now merged our process for managing new applications via the Oxford Brain Bank which is a registered tissue bank. This means we can ensure longevity for future collaborations and scientific discovery. We have also put in place a charge for provision of data and biosamples, which is a cost- recovery process essential to ensure we have funding for staff to do the relevant data extracts and biosampling.
Please complete the two forms below if you would like to start this process, and contact us via email (parkinsons.discovery@nhs.net) if you have any queries on the data available or process.
