Public Engagement Provision. (360G-Wellcome-096599_Z_11_A)
It is anticipated that by 2020 there could be considerable advances in genomic medicine. However, even with demonstrated clinical utility it is uncertain whether such advances will have benefits for patients, because research findings are not routinely implemented into clinical care. To facilitate translational research new sets of partnerships and ways of working are needed between patients, clinicians, researchers and commercial partners. Biobanks potentially lie at the heart of these new rela tionships, as they can be used for patient care, but also for different kinds of research. For biobanks to become key nodes in translational research new practices, policies and protocols are needed. This research will carry out a number of interviews and workshops with stakeholders involved in the Oxford Radcliffe Biobank (ORB) to understand the issues at stake. I will also draw on best practice elsewhere in the world, particularly the US and the Netherlands, to help develop practical solutions in this rapidly changing field. This research will provide an evidence base for national policy formulation which could make ORB an exemplar of best practice for clinical biobanks in the UK. Lessons learnt within ORB could be applied elsewhere in the UK and Europe where similar initiatives are underway.
