Press Release: Researchers Make The Case For Extending Indigenous Data Sovereignty In Science
A Māori research duo, Professor Tahu Kukutai (University of Waikato and co-Director of Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga) and Professor Amanda Black (Lincoln University and Director of Bioprotection Aotearoa), has just published an invited commentary in Science on Indigenous data sovereignty. Using the draft genome of the little bush moa (Anomalopteryx didiformis) as an example, they make the case for non-human genomic data to be held in similar esteem as human genomic data.
