A center that works with the Oregon Alzheimer's Disease Center's Data Core, and collects and stores tissue samples, family history and genotype data of various populations. These include samples and data from subjects from the following sources: OADC clinical studies, the Oregon Brain Aging Study, the Community Brain Donor Program, the Preventing Cognitive Decline with Alternative Therapies program (informally called the Dementia Prevention Study or DPS), the African American Dementia and Aging Project, and the Klamath Exceptional Aging Project. The collected data samples include genomic DNA, lymphoblast cell lines, genome-wide and candidate region SNP marker data, APOE, AD candidate gene markers.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on October 6, 2011. A project to collect, store and study DNA samples from tens of thousands of healthy volunteers and patients with diseases of major public importance. It aims to identify genes that are risk factors for the conditions. The network consists of 13 collections led by different clinicians throughout the UK. At its heart is an archive infrastructure which manages the DNA and the information associated with it. The European Collection of Cell Cultures in Porton Down handles the blood, peripheral blood lymphocytes and EBV-transformed cell lines, while the Centre for Integrated Genomic Medical Research at Manchester University manages the DNA. These banked samples are available to UK and international researchers, who can examine data and set up collaborative work by registering at the DNA Network's website. The conditions for which samples are currently collected and stored are: Acute leukemia, Asthma and eczema, Late onset Alzheimer's disease, Breast cancer, Colorectal cancer, Coronary artery disease, Glomerulonephritis, Hypertension, Age-related macular degeneration, Multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, Type 2 diabetes, Unipolar depression.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 31, 2016. A medical center with a neuropathology research program focused on the normal and abnormal aging process of the central nervous system and a funding source for research. The center serves as a collection site for brains in order to study normal aging and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's.

The Alzheimer's Disease Research Center at Emery University maintains an active brain bank to facilitate the acquisition, storage, handling and distribution of well-characterized autopsy brain tissue and other materials to investigators. It contains frozen tissue and brain specimens, formalin fixed tissue, paraformaldehyde fixed tissue, and cryopreserved tissue. The ADRC also has access to tissues and samples related to other neurodegenerative diseases. It contains plasma samples, serum samples, lymphoblast cell lines, and cerebrospinal fluid.
