A Contract Birth Tissue Recovery specialist is a trained professional who is responsible for collecting birth tissues, such as placenta and umbilical cord, from consenting donors after childbirth, usually in a hospital setting. These tissues are then processed and used for medical treatments and research, including wound care, surgical procedures, and regenerative medicine.
