ICARUS Biorepository

ICARUS (Integrated, Clinically-Augmented Repository for Universal Sampling) is our biorepository based in Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge. Led by Mr Richard Mair, it collects samples from brain tumour patients undergoing treatment.

​

The biorepository is a central research resource for teams across the BCVI, allowing researchers access to tumour and other samples for their studies.

​

Data from ICARUS informs BCVI research themes as well as feeding into day-to-day patient care through the MDT 2.0.
