The short answer is that all Biobanks are Biorepositories, but not all Biorepositories are Biobanks. Realistically speaking, the terms “Biobank” and “Biorepository” are used pretty interchangeably. The differences we can point out when someone asks: What is the difference between Biobanks and Biorepositories?

In 2016, scientists behind a study called the Resilience Project analysed genetic data from 589,000+ people and found 13 adults who carried genetic variants that should have resulted in serious – even deadly – childhood disease, but who were apparently healthy. First, start co-development with participants early on in the process.

Biobanks are used for the coordination of high-yield patient sample collection. Moreover, biobanks are no longer passive biorepositories for accrual of samples and serve a more utilitarian function in identifying and coordinating specific research cohorts for longitudinal and prospective studies.

As part of the US government’s Cancer Moonshot initiative, a Cancer Moonshot Biobank was launched that asked participants to donate biospecimens and associated health information to aid research. Scientists are able to study the aggregated, de-identified genetics of these individuals.

A 2022 study from the Royal College of Physicians and British Pharmacological Society demonstrated the potential of pharmacogenomics, with scientists identifying the genetic cause behind an individual’s drug response for over forty medicines. But for the promised benefits to come to fruition, researchers must be armed with quality data.
