Description: The Open-Source Robotic Biorepository & Informatics Technology is a platform that aims to make blood samples and health related information available to researchers. This resource is intended to help researchers understand human biology so they can develop treatments that are effective for each individual. In the simplest terms, ORBIT is a large library of blood specimens. Patient recruitment for ORBIT is being rolled out of Aurora''s 13 hospitals and 120 clinics in eastern Wisconsin, starting with its Milwaukee facilities. So far, more than 70 percent of patients have agreed to participate. If patients agree to participate, blood left over from their medical tests is sent to the ORBIT lab. Here a robot extracts the DNA from the blood, bar codes the sample and stores it in a freezer. The barcode allows the informatics technology to link each sample with the appropriate privacy-protected electronic medical record. The open source aspect of ORBIT is intended to expand scientific discovery. Researchers who use ORBIT specimens will return their research results to ORBIT to minimize study repetition and to allow researchers from around the world to build on previous results.
