Clinical trial‑embedded biobanking: Oversee biospecimen acquisition, processing, and storage within numerous ongoing national and international clinical trials, respecting study‑specific regulatory requirements, material types, and defined time points.
Robust governance & lifecycle management: Ensure full sample lifecycle governance, including consent, traceability, documentation, data integrity, and transparent access processes for researchers.
Digital & infrastructural innovation: Lead the integration of existing biobank collections into a modern database environment, including metadata harmonization, linkage to clinical, diagnostic, and research data, and implementation of query interfaces for internal and external scientific users.
Institutional & translational collaboration: Act as a central interface to the clinical diagnostics laboratory Labdia (St. Anna CCRI subsidiary), Precision Oncology, the St. Anna CCRI Clinical Trials Unit, pathology partners, and research groups to support translational research pipelines.
Leadership, visibility & sustainability: Build and lead a high‑performing team, represent the biobank in national and international networks, and secure funding to ensure long‑term sustainability.
