[Information support for the bioresource collection: a biological information system «NeuroOnc»]

The manuscript is devoted to development of information support system for a bioresource collection - biological information system «NeuroOnc». Architecture and main functions of system are presented. This system was formed in the project «Development of bioresource collection of tumors of the human nervous system with molecular genetic certification for personalized treatment of patients with neuro-oncological diseases». The purpose of this project was not only formation of bioresource collection, but also development of various molecular genetic methods for analysis of biospecimens in context of clinical researches. Biological information systems created to support the work of bioresource collections in hospitals should become a natural part of information infrastructure. Information support of bioresource collections cannot imply only «warehouse» functions. This system should have tools to support various scientific and clinical researches. Biological information systems can sometimes expand medical information systems but remain sufficiently autonomous. It is advisable to develop biological information systems in large specialized companies that can support their products for many years.
