Sažetak
"The Croatian National Biobank", is a consortium now linking more than 20 research projects, either awarded or presently under review, from all four Medical Schools in Croatia, several teaching hospitals, and public health institutes. It is coordinated from the recently founded Croatian Centre for Global Health, based at the University of Split School of Medicine (2). In its infancy, the national Biobank will rely on 3 large resources that should ensure and maintain its international competitiveness: 1) "10 001 Dalmatians" study of Croatian island isolates ; 2) a hospital-based DNA bank with thousands of cases with most common complex diseases ; and 3) a large cohort from general population to serve as a control sample.
