There is a need among researchers for the easy discoverability of biobank samples. Currently, there is no uniform way for finding samples and negotiate access. Instead, researchers have to communicate with each biobank separately. We present the architecture for the BBMRI-CS IT platform, whose goal is to facilitate sample location and access. We chose a decentral approach, which allows for strong data protection and provides the high flexibility needed in the highly heterogeneous landscape of European biobanks. This is the first implementation of a decentral search in the biobank field. With the addition of a Negotiator component, it also allows for easy communication and a follow-through of the lengthy approval process for accessing samples.
研究人员需要能够轻松地找到生物样本库中的样本。目前,在寻找样本和协商获取样本方面没有统一的方法。相反,研究人员必须分别与每个生物样本库进行沟通。我们展示了BBMRI-CS信息技术平台的架构,其目标是便于样本查找和获取。我们选择了一种去中心化的方法,这种方法能够实现强大的数据保护,并在欧洲生物样本库高度异构的环境中提供所需的高度灵活性。这是生物样本库领域首次实现去中心化搜索。通过添加一个协商组件,它还便于沟通,并能跟进获取样本的漫长审批流程。
