This article discusses the advantages of using human tissues in research, describes how human tissue is collected, and advises investigators on finding and using appropriate bioresources to support their research.
While laboratory animals are necessary for some aspects of the development of scientific and biomedical advances, including those of precision medicine, the use of human tissues is necessary in order to explore the findings and ensure that they are relevant to human systems. Many sources of human tissues exist, but researchers - particularly those making the transition from animal to human systems - may not be aware of how best to find quality sources of human tissues or how best to use them in their research. In this article, we discuss the advantages of using human tissues in research. In addition, we highlight some of the major advances made possible through the use of human tissue, and describe how human tissue is collected for research. We discuss the various types of bioresources that make human tissue available, and advise on how investigators can find and use appropriate bioresources to support their research - with the hope that this information will help facilitate the transition from research on animals to research using human tissues, as rapidly as is practicable.
