BIOMATERIALS

 

Easy access to high-quality biomaterials is essential for advancing CMT4B3 research.

We are committed to removing barriers for scientists working on CMT4B3/SBF1/MTMR5 by providing validated, quality-controlled resources. Our mission is to equip the research community with the best tools to accelerate discoveries and drive therapeutic development.

CMT4B3 BioRepository

Hunter’s CMT4B3 Research Foundation is establishing the CMT4B3 BioRepository, a secure, centralized resource for storing and distributing high-quality biomaterials to researchers worldwide.

Generating iPSC Lines & Edited iPSC Lines

Sampled, Piscataway, New Jersey

We’ve partnered with Sampled, a leading biobank, to create and provide induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and genetically corrected iPSC lines for researchers. These stem cells, derived from skin or blood, can be reprogrammed into any human cell type, making them invaluable for studying disease mechanisms and testing drugs. Edited iPSCs, corrected using CRISPR technology, are also available for more precise research.

Sampled (formerly Infinity BiologiX), with over 21 years of expertise, ensures the highest standards of sample collection, processing, and biobanking to support CMT4B3 research.


Frequently Asked Questions


HOW CAN I OBTAIN CMT4B3 BIOMATERIALS?
