Our Operations
Regional Biobank Center (RBC) Middle Sweden is an administrative service and competence center for biobank matters within the healthcare region. RBC is currently in an exciting development phase as the government has decided to strengthen the conditions for clinical trials. As a result, we are expanding our staff and are now seeking another project coordinator with an assignment as a regulatory investigator of clinical trials and performance studies.
RBC works with overarching and common healthcare regional issues that are affected by the Biobank Act and provides support to the healthcare region's seven regions and their biobank operations. We work together with many different roles and functions, and the overarching goal is to improve care, diagnostics, and treatment. RBC has a central mandate to review biobank applications and provide statements to the Medical Products Agency and the Ethics Review Authority regarding clinical trials and performance studies. RBC Middle Sweden is an important part of Biobank Sweden, which is a national infrastructure for biobanking. Read more about Biobank Sweden here (https://biobanksverige.se/).
