What is a biorepository coordinator?

Biorepository Coordinators are professionals responsible for managing the collection, storage, and distribution of biological samples such as blood, tissue, or DNA within a research or clinical facility. They ensure that samples are properly labeled, tracked, and stored under appropriate conditions to maintain their integrity. Coordinators also oversee data management, compliance with regulations, and quality assurance processes. Their work supports scientific research and advances in medical studies by maintaining reliable and accessible sample inventories.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a biorepository coordinator?

To thrive as a Biorepository Coordinator, you need a solid background in biological sciences, experience with specimen handling, and often a bachelor’s degree in life sciences or a related field. Familiarity with laboratory information management systems (LIMS), biosample tracking software, and regulatory compliance certifications like GCP or GLP is important. Exceptional organizational skills, attention to detail, and strong communication abilities help you excel in managing complex sample inventories and collaborating with research teams. These skills ensure sample integrity, regulatory compliance, and efficient support for research projects.

What are some common challenges faced by biorepository coordinators when managing biological sample inventory?

Biorepository Coordinators often face challenges ensuring accurate tracking and documentation of thousands of biological samples, which may come from multiple studies and collaborators. Maintaining sample integrity during storage, retrieval, and shipment—while adhering to strict protocols and regulatory standards—requires strong organizational skills and attention to detail. Coordinators must also regularly update databases, troubleshoot inventory discrepancies, and communicate effectively with researchers and laboratory staff to fulfill sample requests promptly and accurately.

What is the difference between Biorepository Coordinator vs Laboratory Technician?

AspectBiorepository CoordinatorLaboratory Technician
Required CredentialsTypically requires a bachelor's degree in biology, biochemistry, or related field; certifications like CBRM are a plusUsually requires a high school diploma or associate degree; technical certifications may be preferred
Work EnvironmentWorks in biorepositories, storage facilities, and research labs, handling biological samplesWorks in clinical or research labs, performing experiments and sample processing
Employer & Industry UsageUsed in research institutions, hospitals, and biotech companies managing biological specimensCommon in clinical labs, research facilities, and hospitals performing diagnostic or experimental work

The main difference is that a Biorepository Coordinator manages and maintains biological sample collections, ensuring proper storage and documentation, while a Laboratory Technician performs experimental procedures and sample analysis. Both roles require technical skills, but the Coordinator focuses more on sample management and data accuracy.

Job description

Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq ARWR) is a commercial stage biopharmaceutical company that develops medicines that treat intractable diseases by silencing the genes that cause them. Using a broad portfolio of RNA chemistries and efficient modes of delivery, Arrowhead therapies trigger the RNA interference mechanism to induce rapid, deep, and durable knockdown of target genes. RNA interference, or RNAi, is a mechanism present in living cells that inhibits the expression of a specific gene, thereby affecting the production of a specific protein. Arrowhead's RNAi-based therapeutics leverage this natural pathway of gene silencing.

Arrowhead is focused on developing innovative drugs for diseases with a genetic basis, typically characterized by the overproduction of one or more proteins that are involved with disease. The depth and versatility of our RNAi technologies enables us to potentially address conditions in virtually any therapeutic area and pursue disease targets that are not otherwise addressable by small molecules and biologics. Arrowhead is leading the field in bringing the promise of RNAi to address diseases outside of the liver, and our clinical pipeline includes disease targets in the liver and lung with a promising pipeline of preclinical candidates.

Arrowhead's corporate headquarters is in Pasadena, CA with research and development teams in Madison, WI & San Diego, CA, and a state of the art manufacturing facility in Verona, WI.  Our employees are nimble, science-driven innovators who are collaborating to bring new therapies to patients in need.
