A Brief Overview The Birth Defects Biorepository (BDB) at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia is a joint effort established by the Center for Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment and the Department of Surgery. Its primary purpose is to provide a mechanism to store and permit access to biological specimens and longitudinal participant clinical and research data to support and enhance the conduct of future research on children with birth defects. This unique and robust resource focuses on the maternal-fetal relationship, provides whole genome sequencing of family trios, and collects research-ready data both during fetal development and longitudinally after birth. The Clinical Research Coordinator (CRC) will work closely with a team of coordinators, genetic counselors, data abstractionists, and data analysts. The CRC will primarily be responsible for consenting subjects, manually review of the medical record, and data entry. The CRC will also be responsible for managing biological specimens. Specimen management includes transport, labeling, and minimal processing of tissue samples collected in the OR.
