UAB heart research biobank for adults 18 and older
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study builds a heart-focused research database by enrolling adults who are willing to provide information and/or samples for future cardiovascular research. It may help researchers study heart disease and develop better treatments over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- If you are under 18, you cannot take part
- You must not be an employee or student connected to UAB’s Division of Cardiovascular Disease

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how genetic markers (DNA) relate to heart health and “metabolic” health (how your body manages sugar and fat). You may be asked to provide genetic samples and follow study health checks and protocols to help researchers understand who is at higher risk.
This study creates a collection of skin cells (turned into stem cells in a lab) from people with various heart and blood vessel conditions. It aims to find new ways to understand and treat these diseases.
This study builds a “biobank,” which is a collection of blood and related samples, to support future research on heart and metabolic (sugar/body-fat) conditions. It may help researchers better understand these diseases and improve future prevention and treatments.
This trial builds a database by collecting and storing biopsy or biopsy-related samples from adults being evaluated for certain heart conditions. It may help researchers study heart disease and amyloidosis by making past tissue samples easier to access for future research.
This trial collects blood and tissue samples from people with and without heart disease to study heart health. If you are 18 or older and either a UCSF patient, a family member of a heart patient, or have no heart disease, you may be able to help.
This study collects tissue samples from children and adults having heart surgery. The samples will help researchers learn more about heart conditions and improve future treatments.
