Fig. 7From: Engaging scientists: An online survey exploring the experience of innovative biotechnological approaches to controlling vector-borne diseasesPerceptions of science and technology by scientists (Q24). Scientists were asked ‘As a scientist but also as a citizen, how much do you agree or disagree with the following statements about science, technology and society?’. The specific statements are reproduced below the histograms. There is a very high degree of agreement that biotechnology will provide new opportunities to future generations between scientists that are citizens of disease-endemic countries and those of non-endemic countries. However there is a very striking contrast between the same groups as to the perceived desirability of the pace of change due to science and technologyBack to article page
