Contact persons and coordinators at the Biobank Research Unit

We recommend that researchers contact us early in the planning of a study. We can assist with advice on, among other things, study design and the application for ethical approval.

We provide advice and practical assistance with:

  • epidemiological questions (eg methodological changes and the structure of the population)
  • statistical issues
  • study design (for example, repeated sampling)
  • legal questions and accompanying paperwork (eg applications and certain legal agreements)
  • applications for ethical approval
  • appropriate partners/consortia and other contacts
  • registry linking, matching of controls and pseudonymisation
  • harmonization of data
  • generation of diet database.
