Application Process

In order to obtain samples from the tissue procurement facility, the investigator must complete the Application Form and Request for Services Form. The Application Form only needs to be filled out once for each project. If additional services are requested for an ongoing project, additional Request for Services Forms may be submitted. Three copies each of the completed Application Form, Request for Services Form and the investigators approved SCRIHS protocol must be received before acquisition of tissue can commence.
