Tissue Bank
Tissue Bank: is an establishment that collects and recovers human cadaver tissue for the purposes of medical research, education, and allograft transplantation. A tissue bank may also refer to a location where biomedical tissue is stored under cryogenic conditions, and is generally used in a more clinical sense. Tissues that are not suitable for transplant can be donated to help support the studies of both common and rare diseases and to develop new treatments and cures.
