HSTB renamed as Pitt Biospecimen Core (PBC)

The HSTB has been renamed the Pitt Biospecimen Core (PBC) to better represent the breadth of our services.

Starting July 1, 2018, users will begin seeing Pitt Biospecimen Core (PBC) on all HSTB-related correspondence and websites. We invite you to explore our new website and contact us with any questions.

More than a tissue bank, we are your partners in science.
