157 Accelerating veterinary clinical innovation through biobanking.

Abstract This session will focus on the ways veterinary biobanking can be leveraged to support clinical innovation and discovery in both the veterinary and the translational medicine spaces. It will provide examples of where biobanking has supported important breakthroughs, will review the types of veterinary biobanking resources currently available, and discuss the ethics of veterinary biobanking that should be considered as these activities become more common in veterinary medicine.
