On 15 December this year, researchers from the Latvian Biomedical Research and Study Centre, acting as representatives of the BBMRI.LV national node, organized a seminar aimed at introducing interested participants to the use of the BBMRI-ERIC biobank catalogue Directory.

Vita Rovīte, Director of the BBMRI.LV national node, explains: “Directory is the largest publicly available biobank catalogue, helping biobanks to showcase their sample collections and enabling researchers to search for samples of interest.”

The seminar was organized by the Latvian Biomedical Research and Study Centre, the coordinator of the BBMRI-Latvia national biobank network, which implements the BBMRI-ERIC Latvian National Partnership Plan. This activity contributes to the achievement of performance indicators within Project No. 1.1.1.5/3/24/I/006, “Development of Latvia’s research potential by strengthening the integration of the Latvian Biomedical Research and Study Centre into European infrastructures and scientific networks”, co-financed by the European Union.
