Coriel
Cell Repositories - Coriel Institute for Medical Research provide
essential research reagents to the scientific community by
establishing, verifying, maintaining, and distributing cells
cultures and DNA derived from cell cultures. These collections,
supported by funds from the National Institutes of Health
(NIH) and several foundations, are extensively utilized by
research scientists around the world.
