Assessment of the study protocol
All scientific research that includes the procurement and/or use of HBM, regardless of the origin, type of material, use of the biospecimens and destination of the samples, requires to have biobank approval prior to the start of the research.

The approval of the biobank for the provision of the HBM is a mandatory element for a dossier to be admissible to the ethics committee research UZ / KU Leuven.
