The LMU MedBiobank is an umbrella organisation for the biobanks of the LMU Hospital and the LMU Faculty of Medicine at the Grosshadern and City Centre sites. The LMU MedBiobank is coordinated by the Medical Directorate's staff unit "Digital Medicine and LMU MedBiobank", headed by Dr Joachim Havla. On the IT side, the LMU MedBiobank is supported by MeDICLMU (the local data integration centre).

The LMU MedBiobank "2.0" pursues a coordinative approach, primarily with the aim of establishing standards for biobanking at the LMU Clinical Centre among the "participating institutions" and making the existing biobanking comprehensively visible and usable. The biobank on behalf of the HTCR Foundation, represented by HTCR-Services GmbH, is one of the "participating institutions", as is the LMU Institute of Pathology.
