If you or someone you know has been diagnosed with NMO, please help us with blood samples and/or clinical data donations to our Biorepository, or blood bank. Blood samples and clinical data are vital for NMO research. Many developments in NMO treatment come from doctors and researchers analyzing blood samples and data.
Only a limited amount of NMO samples are available worldwide, making accessibility to NMO biosamples by our research scientists an urgent need. You can help us meet this critical need by donating your samples and clinical data, thereby raising awareness of our repository program.
The GJCF International Clinical Consortium (ICC) connects the Biorepository (BR) to scientific, clinical, industry and agencies’ expertise. Members of the ICC&BR have access to these resources to solve NMO through innovative prevention, diagnostic, therapeutic and educational strategies that benefit patients worldwide.
