Resumen
VITAL, Nery Cunha et al. Science and tecnology management: a challenge for Public Health laboratories in Brazil. Epidemiol. Serv. Saúde [online]. 2009, vol.18, n.2, pp.179-187. ISSN 1679-4974. http://dx.doi.org/10.5123/S1679-49742009000200009.
This study had the objective to understand the perception of researchers about the conditions for scientific research production available in Brazilian reference laboratories for the diagnosis of dengue; yellow fever and spot fever. A questionnaire was sent to researchers with questions related to concepts and themes on scientific projects management and the environment for scientific production. It was a Likert type questionnaire with multiple response options. The purpose was to know the point of view of each researcher about the present situation and the desirable situation in their laboratory of origin. Results were plotted in graphs and their internal consistency was checked using Cronbach's alpha. This study has concluded that those reference laboratories are able to undertake scientific projects, although they have difficulties related mainly to scientific and technology planning and management.
