Brain samples for scientific research
The human brain tissue is of excellent quality through rapid autopsy procedures with short post-mortem delays of approximately three to ten hours. The tissue samples are highly suitable for the newest high-resolution molecular research techniques. Researchers affiliated with universities, other non-profit organizations, and pharmaceutical companies worldwide can apply for samples under the NBB’s open access policy. A scientific committee reviews all applications based on scientific quality and feasibility.
