The goal of this workshop will be to:
i. Assess current methods in sample collection, preservation, and long-term storage
ii. Develop a flow-chart of all downstream analyses that are possible with a giving collection, preservation, and storage approach.
iii. Develop a common framework for sample preservation and archiving to enhance the potential for additional downstream analyses and collaborations.
iv. Compile a list of archived samples from workshop participants to test the ability of researchers to develop collaborations to test new hypotheses using archived samples.
