National Disease Research Interchange seeking tissues

                             NDRI

The National Disease Research Interchange (NDRI) is a non-profit organization founded in 1980 to provide donated human cells, tissue and organs to researchers. The NDRI's Private Donor Program enables tissue recovered from surgeries that would otherwise be discarded to become a valuable medical resource. Over 500 researchers from renowned institutions receive organs and tissues from NDRI.

 

ReproTech and NDRI are requesting your help in educating your clinic staff and patients about NDRI's donation programs when you feel appropriate. NDRI's Private Donor Program brochure may be

distributed to patients, as well as an Intro to NDRI and Fact Sheet on donation. To speak with an NDRI coordinator, call 1-800-222-NDRI (6374). Thank you for your cooperation, and please contact NDRI or Joy at jbader@reprotech.com with questions.
