Endometriosis data and biorepository program administered by the University of Minnesota established, report required, and money appropriated.

HF 2556 establishes an endometriosis research program at the University of Minnesota, directly affecting Minnesotans diagnosed with endometriosis. The program collects anonymized biological samples (like blood, tissue, and urine) and clinical data from patients with endometriosis and control groups, focusing on early detection and better treatments. It requires the university to create standardized protocols for sample handling, ensure diverse community representation, and report annually to legislators starting in 2026. The bill appropriates state funds for fiscal years 2026 and 2027 to support this research initiative.
