DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The ultimate goal of this project is to develop a state-of-the-art world class biorepository of well annotated stored biospecimens widely available to H3Africa Consortium, African and International researchers for genomic discovery projects. The information obtained from the genomic analysis of the samples will allow researchers to develop or test new diagnostic tests, personalize treatment options, and develop new treatment methods. Over the course of this six year project, the Integrated Biorepository of H3Africa Uganda will collect, process and store over 400,000 highly valuable samples that are annotated with relevant clinical information, and distribute them to qualified researchers working in the fied of genetics/genomics in Africa and beyond.

描述(由申请人提供)：该项目的最终目标是开发一个最先进的世界级生物标本储存库，其中包括经过良好注释的储存生物标本，可广泛用于H3非洲联盟、非洲和国际研究人员的基因组发现项目。从样本基因组分析中获得的信息将使研究人员能够开发或测试新的诊断测试，个性化治疗选择，并开发新的治疗方法。在这个为期六年的项目中，乌干达H3非洲综合生物库将收集、处理和存储400,000多个带有相关临床信息注释的高度有价值的样本，并将它们分发给在非洲和其他地区从事遗传学/基因组学研究的合格研究人员。
