Biobanking Partnerships Director at the Colorado Center for Personalized Medicine (CCPM) provides strategic leadership for the region’s premier biobank and its collaborative initiatives. In addition to overseeing the growth and impact of CCPM’s biobanking capabilities, the Director is charged with leveraging CCPM’s biobank as the standard to inform and elevate biobanking practice across CU Anschutz. By aligning biobanking operations with best-in-class standards, the Director will help position the university as a leader in large-scale biospecimen-based research and innovation, enabling the development of high-impact partnerships with academic, clinical, and industry collaborators.
Under the oversight of the CCPM Director, this role will work closely with CU Innovations, UCHealth, and university stakeholders to ensure that broad-scale biobanking infrastructure and practices are optimized for translational research, industry partnerships, and sustainable growth.
CCPM’s biobanking work includes genotyping and the clinical return of results generated in CCPM’s CAP/CLIA laboratory, both for the biobank study and clinical care. For such work, oversight and sign-out duties are conducted through a partnership with the Department of Pathology. Thus, the Biobanking Partnerships Director will need to strategically weigh potential impacts upon CCPM’s workflows, collaborating closely with clinical teams to ensure that partnerships are strategically aligned and practical. It is critically important that this individual understands the complexities of CAP/CLIA regulations and is a strong operational leader. The cross-campus and external collaborations must be strategic and operationalized in a manner that aligns with applicable regulations. As such, this position requires ABMGG-board eligibility/certification, or equivalent.
