Abstract
The first Biobanking and BioMolecular resources Research Infrastructure-Academy Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications (ELSI)'s Symposium, held in June 2024 at IARC/WHO in Lyon, explored ethical, legal, and societal dimensions of biobanking and biomedical research through interdisciplinary perspectives. Over eight thematic sessions, the event addressed diverse topics including data privacy, artificial intelligence ethics, regulatory compliance, genomics, and public participation, showcasing contributions from global experts and young researchers. The symposium emphasized the importance of balancing research innovation with societal and ethical considerations, offering insights into trust-building, gender-sensitive approaches, and cross-border collaboration. Marking a milestone for ELSI-focused discourse, the symposium laid the groundwork for ongoing engagement, with the next meeting planned for 2025 in Bilbao.

期刊介绍:
Biopreservation and Biobanking is the first journal to provide a unifying forum for the peer-reviewed communication of recent advances in the emerging and evolving field of biospecimen procurement, processing, preservation and banking, distribution, and use. The Journal publishes a range of original articles focusing on current challenges and problems in biopreservation, and advances in methods to address these issues related to the processing of macromolecules, cells, and tissues for research.
In a new section dedicated to Emerging Markets and Technologies, the Journal highlights the emergence of new markets and technologies that are either adopting or disrupting the biobank framework as they imprint on society. The solutions presented here are anticipated to help drive innovation within the biobank community.
Biopreservation and Biobanking also explores the ethical, legal, and societal considerations surrounding biobanking and biorepository operation. Ideas and practical solutions relevant to improved quality, efficiency, and sustainability of repositories, and relating to their management, operation and oversight are discussed as well.
