Abstract

A human brain bank is an essential facility to support the study of neuroscience and neurological disorders. The roles of the human brain bank in advancing basic and clinical neurosciences have been well established in the developed countries. Human brain bank in China is still under developing and needs to be further promoted. The China Human Brain Bank Consortium has been recently initiated and established by 10 Chinese medical institutes. The Consortium aims to combine the strengths in the neuroscience research fields and to promote collaboration through information sharing and joint research projects across the country. This standardized operational protocol (SOP) is recommended by the academic committee of the Consortium and is adopted from the existing SOPs used by those established human brain banks in other countries and taken into consideration of the status quo in China. We hope that the publication of this SOP will facilitate the construction of more internationalstandard human brain banks via the developing of consistent brain tissue processing standards, and eventually provide strategic guidelines for a nationwide brain tissue resource-sharing system in China.
