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.

 

Fertility Preservation for the Oncology Patient

  

YOU know about Fertility Preservation options.  But perhaps you don't have the time to pass the information on to your colleagues and staff.  ReproTech can help!  We would like to help you educate healthcare professionals by offering our staff to visit your center for a presentation.  ReproTech's site directors are available for Fertility Preservation presentations in each of our local areas. As well, ReproTech can offer help in recruiting a local Reproductive Endocrinologist (RE) to visit your center. If your center is interested in coordinating a presentation or vist, please contact Joy at jbader@reprotech.com
