Proper Citation: Cardio-Facio-Cutaneous Syndrome International Biobank (RRID:SCR_004552)
Description: CFC International holds the world''s largest collection of blood and tissue from people affected by CFC and their immediate relatives. It is the only centralized repository in the world. The CFC BioBank provides medical researchers with genetic and biological material from CFC patients and their families, so that research on CFC and other related syndromes can be performed. CFC International joined the Genetic Alliance BioBank in 2004 to make certain that your privacy and confidentiality are protected and your samples are available to any approved research project. The bank serves as a resource for researchers around the world who are willing to search to find the gene(s) responsible for the Cardio-Facio-Cutaneous Syndrome. As you know, Cardio-Facio-Cutaneous Syndrome is an extremely rare condition. Thus while access to cell lines is essential for studying the biology and genetics of the disorder, there are very few cell lines in existence. Because an integral part of CFC''s mission is to stimulate interest in CFC research, there is an increased need for cell lines. The CFC BioBank will ensure that need is met! The goals of The CFC BioBank are to promote: * Sufficient availability of cells for approved research projects * Incentive for new research projects * Study of the biochemical basis for CFC Syndrome * Discoveries leading to new treatments for children with CFC Syndrome If you are interested in donating to the CFC BioBank please call 607-772-9666, or e-mail us at bconger_at_cfcsyndrome.org and indicate your interest. Researchers with an interest in either donating CFC Syndrome cell lines or in applying to use material from the bank should also call or write.
