NIAID Specimen Repository

NIAID标本库（NSR）负责接收、储存和分发从NIAID资助的临床试验和观察队列研究机构收到的生物标本。目前，该储存库保存了来自艾滋病毒相关临床试验和队列研究的标本。这些标本是多年来收集的。在NSR中存储标本的研究组的选择以NIAID的科学优先级为指导。目前在NSR中储存标本的NIAID研究小组是：妇女跨机构艾滋病毒研究（WIHS）和多中心艾滋病队列研究（MACS），现在称为MACS/WIHS联合队列研究（MWCCS）；以及艾滋病毒疫苗试验网络（HVTN）。NSR还保存着其他由niaid资助的小型研究中已完成的标本。目前在“北方自然保护区”有超过800万个标本。

The NIAID Specimen Repository (NSR) provides receipt, storage and distribution of biological specimens received from institutions conducting NIAID-sponsored clinical trials and observational cohort studies. Presently the repository houses specimens from HIV-related clinical trials and cohort studies. The specimens have been collected over many years. Selection of Study Groups storing specimens in the NSR is guided by scientific priorities of NIAID. The current NIAID Study Groups storing specimens in the NSR are: the Women’s Interagency HIV Study (WIHS) and the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS), now called the MACS/WIHS Combined Cohort Study (MWCCS); and the HIV Vaccine Trials Network (HVTN). The NSR also maintains specimens from other smaller NIAID-sponsored studies that have been completed. There are currently over 8 million specimens in the NSR.
