AB - This study aimed to analyze the public's perception and attitude toward a national biobank. Using a telephone survey, researchers collected data from 708 completed interviews conducted throughout 2009. These interviews revealed 5 major trends regarding the public's opinion of a national biobank. First, awareness of national biobanks were very low with only 13.9% of respondents indicating that they had heard of a biobank. Secondly, the public's attitude toward biobanks was an optimistic one. Another, this survey also suggested that less than 50% of respondents were reluctant to provide their personal genetic information. Additionally, respondents emphasized "public service" and "citizen participation" as the primary principles for making a national biobank. Lastly, citizens were aware of both the risks and benefits associated with the creation of a biobank. Lastly, citizens were aware of both the risks and benefits associated with the creation of a biobank. While many people were wary of the government's ability to maintain their privacy, they also recognized the research benefits of compiling such a wide array of genetic data. Overall, the public's perception of national biobanks was consistent with that of stem cell research and other biotech issues.
