US and Scottish Health Professionals attitudes toward DNA biobanking

AMIA Annu Symp Proc. 2007 Oct 11:1027.

Abstract

The authors used a fifteen item survey to canvass 200 health care professionals in the United States and Scotland about their attitudes toward the potential utility of a DNA biobank. Results indicate a broadly favorable opinion in both locations. This finding seems to support further development of such a tool.
