“…Biorepositories play a vital role in modern biomedical research by overseeing the acquisition, preservation, handling, and organization of biological specimens and clinical information derived from human participants ( Day and Stacey, 2008 ; Kinkorová and Topolčan, 2020 ). They also leverage advanced technologies such as omics data, bioinformatics, artificial intelligence, and systems biology to enhance their value, ultimately contributing to the expedited understanding of diseases, the advancement of treatments, and the support of precision medicine initiatives, particularly as we approach the era of smart healthcare systems ( Han et al, 2014 ; Carey et al, 2016 ; Kinkorová, 2016 ; Nalbantoglu and Karadag, 2019 ; Kinkorová and Topolčan, 2020 ). The integration of comprehensive biological profiles is crucial for revealing disease-related patterns, mechanisms, and biomarkers, supporting targeted screening, diagnostics, therapeutics, and early risk evaluation ( Bayat 2002 ; Horgan and Kenny, 2011 ; Goossens et al, 2015 ; Coppola et al, 2019 ; Biswas and Chakrabarti, 2020 ; Bhardwaj et al, 2022 ; Poetsch and Li, 2023 ).…”
