Analyzing genomic data across populations is central to understanding the role of genetic factors in health and disease. Successful sharing relies on public support, which requires attention whether people around world are willing donate their that then subsequently shared with others for research. However, studies such perceptions geographically limited do not enable comparison. This paper presents results from a very large survey attitudes toward sharing. Data 36,268 individuals 22...

Abstract Background Public trust is central to the collection of genomic and health data sustainability research. To merit trust, those involved in collecting sharing need demonstrate they are trustworthy. However, it unclear what measures most likely this. Methods We analyse ‘Your DNA, Your Say’ online survey public perspectives on including responses from 36,268 individuals across 22 low-, middle- high-income countries, gathered 15 languages. examine how participants perceived relative...

This paper reports findings from Germany-based participants in the "Your DNA, Your Say" study, a collaborative effort among researchers more than 20 countries across world to explore public attitudes, values and opinions towards willingness donate genomic other personal data for use by others. Based on representative sample of German residents (n = 1506) who completed German-language version survey, we found that views genetic exceptionalism were less prevalent arm study English-language...

The aim of this study was to determine how attitudes toward the return genomic research results vary internationally.We analyzed "Your DNA, Your Say" online survey public perspectives on data sharing including responses from 36,268 individuals across 22 low-, middle-, and high-income countries, these were gathered in 15 languages. We participants responded when asked whether (RoR) would motivate their decision donate DNA or health data. examined variation countries compared other with those...

In recent years, progress in the field of lie detection has been linked to technological advances from classic polygraphs neuroscientific brain imaging. our empirical investigation, however, we found different notions that do not comply with popular understanding as innovation. We follow users procedures Germany order discern how they embrace seemingly old technologies and frame them terms novelty improvement. identify two progress: one view polygraph juridical an instrument for procedural...
