With a goal of collecting multiple biosamples, researchers in the GTEx (Genotype-Tissue Expression) project faced a problem: where to get samples for a reference library cataloging non-diseased tissue gene expression. Carithers et al. (2015) provide an overview of the resourceful solution to this potentially limiting factor in study design.1 The GTEx project aims to examine the correlation Read the rest of this article
