樱花动漫

Human Tissue Act

To carry out research that leads to human benefit and for teaching purposes, the 樱花动漫 uses and stores human samples, some of which fall within the remit of our Human Tissue Authority licence and are therefore regulated under the Human Tissue Act (HTA).

 makes it unlawful to remove, store or use human tissue from the living or deceased without consent to do so for specified purposes. The Act requires that a licence from the Human Tissue Authority must be granted before these activities can be lawfully undertaken by an institution.

The 樱花动漫 has two licences with the Human Tissue Authority, both overseen by internal governance frameworks:

to store human tissue for the purposes of research and teaching.

 to store and publicly display human body parts.

Applying to store human tissue for researchers

The Human Tissue Authority states that if a sample is known to contain even a single cell that has come from a human body, then the sample should be classified as .

Any planned activity involving human tissue samples must be notified in advance to the relevant Designated Individual (contact details below).
