Science Care

Science Care is the nations first accredited whole body donor program and has been accredited since March 2003. Both our Arizona and Colorado offices have been inspected and accredited by the American Association of Tissue Banks, www. aatb.org, for the retrieval, processing, storage and distribution of non-transplantable human tissue for medical research – more... and education. Science Care has been licensed by the State of New York Department of Health since June 2004 as a non-transplant anatomic tissue bank.

Research tissue banks, such as Science Care, must comply with all federal, state and local laws and regulations that apply to the use and disposition of human tissue.

Q: What is your corporate status? A: Science Care is incorporated as a taxable organization that is required to pay federal and state income taxes. Science Care provides services directly related to the cost of donation at no cost to donor families, is not organized to accept tax deductible monetary contributions and is not dependent on government grants. The researcher organizations, to which Science Care provides donor tissue, consist of both not-for-profit and for-profit entities. Each of these organizations selected their legal form, as did Science Care, because they believe it is the most appropriate structure to fulfill their mission.

Q: Do you charge researchers for tissue or permit tissue brokering? A: Science Care is a fee based service organization. As an ethical institution, accredited by the ATTB, Science Care charges reasonable fees for services provided to the medical research and educational community for the removal, processing, disposal, preservation, quality control, storage and transportation of human tissue. Science Care provides tissue only to qualified end users and prohibits tissue brokering or third party tissue transfer. Science Care abides by the National Organ Transplant Act, which prohibits the buying and selling of human organs and tissue. At Science Care, human tissue is never treated as a commodity. Science Care firmly believes that human tissue has the ability to save and improve the lives of many people, and should be treated with dignity and respect. – lessMore from ZoomInfo »
