The findings are representative of the UK population and provide fresh and significant insights to inform science communication practice and how research priorities might be shaped, building a better understanding of the social context of biomedical research. The survey is repeated every three years and a large proportion of the questions recur in each wave. The aim of this tracking survey is to build a high-quality evidence base that explores trends and variations across time on both general scientific and medical themes and specific societal issues. This robust study also seeks to develop a more systematic approach to describing and understanding current interest in, attitudes towards and knowledge of science and biomedical research. There is flexibility within each wave to include a number of additional questions to explore new and topical areas of interest. <br> <br> Further information is available from the <a class="external" href="http://www.wellcome.ac.uk/About-us/Publications/Reports/Public-engagement/WTX058859.htm" title="Wellcome Trust Monitor">Wellcome Trust Monitor</a> webpage.<br> <br>The <i>Wellcome Trust Monitor Waves 1-3 Combined Adults Data, 2009-2015</i> contains adult data from the Waves 1, 2 and 3 of the <i>Wellcome Trust Monitor</i>.
