Abstract: The present technology generally relates to a cryogenic tissue sample storage system. Select embodiments of a tissue sample storage system include a tray having a first well configured to receive a first tissue sample therein a second well configured to receive a second tissue sample therein. The tray can include a first well identification feature associated with the first well and a second well identification feature associated with the second well. The storage system can further include a lid hingedly associated with the tray and movable between (a) a first position in which the first and second wells are occluded by the lid, and (b) a second position in which the first and second wells are externally accessible. The first well identification feature can be unique from the second well identification feature.
