Breast Registry

With the participation of Rays of Hope Center for Breast Cancer Research, we have more than 1,580 patients consented to the registry, and a repository of FFPE and frozen tissues from more than 650 donors.  

What We Have To Offer

Through collaborative projects, academic, industry, clinical and environmental researchers can have access to a diverse range of normal breast tissue biospecimens and primary epithelial cells from patients. We have developed the infrastructure for laser capture microdissection to support detailed analyses of archived tissues.

  • Frozen and paraffin embedded tissue from more than 650 patients with IRB approvals
  • Benign epithelial primary cultures from over 250 individuals
  • Tumor pieces as FFPE, flash frozen and in some cases frozen in DMSO from 85 individuals
  • Samples are coded with patient characteristics available 
clinically annotated breast biospecimens-clinical data, breast registry, breast biobank, breast tissue bank-breast cancer research, histology, breast density, gene expression profiles, lifestyle factors
Patient Characteristics
Panels of tissues and cells that reflect the diversity of the population (e.g. weight, age, number of pregnancies, BMI, mammographic density)
