Collecting Tissue Samples for Future Research From Women Undergoing Surgery for Breast Cancer
RATIONALE: Collecting and storing samples of tumor tissue from patients with breast cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about cancer. PURPOSE: This phase I study is collecting tissue samples for future research from women undergoing surgery for breast cancer.
Genetic Factors in Chronic Sinusitis
The purpose of this study is to learn more about the genetics of chronic sinusitis and identify genes involved in chronic sinusitis.
A Study of the Natural Progression of Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)
We propose to acquire data and blood samples on all patients being cared for by the Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) program. Additionally, we will collect data and blood samples from a control group for comparator purposes. In doing so, we will be able to describe the "phenotypic" expression of these …
Clinical and Genetic Analysis of ROP
Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is a vascular disease affecting the retinas (back of the eye) of low birth weight infants. Although it can be treated effectively if diagnosed early, it continues to be a leading cause of childhood blindness in the United States and throughout the world. The investigators feel …
Biliary Atresia Study in Infants and Children
Little is known about the factors that cause biliary atresia nor the factors that influence disease progression. The purpose of this study is to collect the pertinent clinical information, genetic material and body fluid samples to enable investigators to address the following aims: To identify the gene or genes implicated …
SPIROMICS Study of Early COPD Progression (SOURCE)
This is an observational study of 1000 participants to further define the nature of early chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in younger, at-risk individuals.

OMEGA: Outcome Measures in Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders Across the Ages
The purpose of this observational study is to find the best measures to define how well a person with eosinophilic disorder is doing. People with EoE, EG, EGE and EC normally undergo endoscopy and/or colonoscopy where cells are collected for microscopic analysis. Treatments are then decided based on how the …
