We previously developed the homeRNA and homeRNAmax platforms; these custom-designed tubes containing RNA stabilizer interface with a blood tube compatible with upper-arm blood collection devices, allowing for blood collection and RNA stabilization to occur from a participant's home. In this work we introduce…",
