Yes! I think as scientists who work in this area we should share our findings with everyone to help reduce the amount of disease there is in the world. I think cross country collaborations are the way to help reduce global disease.

Most definitely! and to be honest, something like that would probably already require a lot of communicating with a lot of other scientists to find it. Collaboration and working together is what science is all about

Marianne King answered on 20 Jun 2019:
Definitely! Very competitive scientists might be secretive about it though. This can be a problem in the scientific community! Unfortunately publishing research can be so competitive that it forces people to be quite guarded about their findings or ideas sometimes. It’s a shame because as Ettie and Matthew have said collaboration is so key to science working well.

Yes, as Matthew said, to cure any disease will require the help and knowledge of many scientists over many years. The cure will have been built upon the published work of other scientists so while you might be able to keep quiet about the work your currently doing it’s unsurprising to find out that others have similar ideas or are trying to answer the same questions at the same time.

Of course! Scientists need to share knowledge, and usually we love to tell others about our findings too!

Of course! I think the only way we can defeat diseases or any health problem is to be communicative and collaborative.

Yes, to as many scientists and healthcare specialists as I could as long I could be sure they wouldn’t abuse that information to kill people. Sadly we live in a world where bioterrorism is a real threat. Sometimes really precious information can get into the wrong hands, but generally it’s best to collaborate and share everything we find to keep science moving forward.

Alex Blenkinsop answered on 24 Jun 2019:
Definitely! As the others have said, it takes a huge team of people to discover, test and license a new treatment so it would be impossible to do this alone

Of course – it’s really exciting that we have the internet now and can share findings quickly! We can get other scientists to help verify it’s true and make it better and spread the word too to help the world benefit from it.
