Human Developmental Biology Resource
The Human Developmental Biology Resource (HDBR) is a national human tissue resource for medical research. Supported by the Wellcome Trust and the Medical Research Council, it is based at the Institute of Child Health, London and the Institute of Human Genetics, Newcastle upon Tyne.
The HDBR collects, stores and distributes embryonic tissue for research. This material is available to developmental biologists to help them increase knowledge of a large number of serious diseases and conditions.
