Biobanking is a relatively newly recognized and innovative branch of science, which includes the collection of samples and associated data from hospitals, diagnostic centers, and voluntary donations for biomedical and environmental research. It involves diverse stakeholders at the junction of society, science, ethics, law, and politics. A key element in the success of a biobank is the trust and support of public donors, clinicians, and scientists. To achieve trust, it is important to implement strategies that can increase biobank awareness in common people, and different types of communities. Biobank laws and regulations and transparent governance by the biobanks are also crucial to achieving public trust.
