This revamped, streamlined process for requesting biospecimens incorporates user feedback to better facilitate access to biospecimens. Certain requests will still require an X01 Resource Access Award; however, many will need only an administrative review or will leverage existing grant applications peer review if one was submitted. The new request process is designed to share NIDDK-CR resources with more researchers faster and easier to continue fostering innovative research. Researchers can visit the Material Counts page to explore the available resources and start a request.
