Sure, I'd be happy to explain biobank and biobanking to kids!

A biobank is a special type of bank, but instead of keeping money, it keeps

something called "biological samples." Biological samples can be things like blood,
saliva, or pieces of tissue that are collected from people or animals.

The reason biobanks exist is because scientists use these samples to do important
research. For example, they might study how certain diseases affect the body, or
look for new treatments for illnesses.

Biobanks are really important because they help scientists study things that they
might not be able to otherwise. By having a large collection of biological samples,
they can do studies with a lot of different people and animals, which makes their
research more accurate.

So that's what a biobank is - it's a place where biological samples are kept so
that scientists can study them and learn more about our bodies and the world around
us.
