ResumoThe research biobanking field is developing rapidly in Russia. Over the course of the last decade, numerous biobanks were created or formed from existing collections of human and environmental biospecimens. The Russian National Association of Biobanks and Biobanking Specialists (NASBIO) was established in December 2018, aiming to: (1) unite professionals and research centers to create and develop a network of biobanks in Russia; (2) provide services and expertise in the field of biobanking; (3) execute various research projects utilizing biobanks' infrastructure; and (4) facilitate integration of Russian biomedical research centers into global research activities. The organizational structure, aims, and plans of this newly formed national association are reviewed in this article. The founders of NASBIO hope that the association will promote further development of biobanks and their networking in Russia, which is critically important for the success of national biomedical, pharmaceutical, and biotechnological research, and can facilitate international biobanking projects on a global scale.
