Invenio Institute Awarded Contract by Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) to Distribute Human Islets for Research to Their Funded Investigators.
The JDRF has renewed a contract with Invenio Institute to distribute human islets which had distributed 5 million human islets during the first contract in 2007. This new contract permits Invenio Institute to utilize the automated website of the ICR to alert investigators on the availability of human islets following their processing. Invenio Institute contracts with Prodo Laboratories, Inc to obtain the human research pancreases and process them into high quality human islets that Invenio Institute then distributes to the JDRF funded investigators
