The NBDC is proud to have a presence at the American Society of Human Genomics 2022. With an expected attendance of 6000 the ASHG Annual Meeting is the premiere genetics and genomics meeting of the year m.youtube.com/watch?v=9pXyGq…

It had been a perfect day for Caitlyne Gonzales. The Uvalde survivor saw Beto O'Rourke, one of her gun-safety heroes, speak. She took a selfie with him, got free shirts, ate fried chicken after. Then, on the way home, police lights flashed behind her family's car. A thread:

#ASHG22 don’t miss @Nativebio co-founder and @asu Asst Prof Dr. Krystal Tsosie, PhD, MPH moderate “All of Us for All of You” NIH #research program. Platform 1:45pm - 2:45pm (Pacific) #genomics #data

😳All the layers of approval this #design went through and no one caught this? Reached out to you? #Native artist? There’s more collaboration on the Federal Duck Stamp. U.S. Postal Service needs to make this right with you.

.@YrachetaJM: journals and pressure to publish are not good for indigenous communities and researchers. Open data requirements are coercive. #ASHG22

On the powwow highway to meet with investors. @YrachetaJM Dr. Krystal Tsosie, PhD, MPH Kaliphornya Dale @guthdx For more info on Indigenous-led health approaches: nativebio.org x.com/messages/media…

ICWA protects Native children, and we need to #ProtectICWA. Join our campaign by sharing this artwork by Morningstar Designs and toolkit on Instagram. illuminative.org/protect-icwa-t…

Hmmm being seeing tweets saying a lot of allies want to help #ProtectICWA but don't know how to start having the conversation because they lack historical and contemporary context, so let me help you. You don't HAVE to say anything other than #ProtectICWA.

I recently came across data on who we spend our time with over the course of our lives. The insights are simultaneously inspiring and depressing. Here are 6 graphs everyone needs to see:

FROM THE ARCHIVES: "We did not simply fade into the background as Thanksgiving myth says, we have survived and thrived, we have persevered" indiancountrytoday.com/news/400-years…

Hands down the best story I've read on the student debt crisis. Historically informed journalism. “We are in danger of producing an educated proletariat. That’s dynamite! We have to be selective on who we allow to go through higher education.” lohud.com/story/news/edu…

Dr. Fox (Dr./Prof. Keolu Fox) talking about various ways to circumvent Indigenous stewardship to sell/co-opt/commercialize Indigenous genomic data. Here, Christie’s Auction House sold a lei necklace of Native Hawaiian hair, a resource that is priceless for Kānaka Maoli. #PAG30

“As a scientist, I’m a fan of open data. But we are not yet ready for open data.” @YrachetaJM at #PAG30 giving a much-needed overview of how far legal protections need to advance in order to be equitable for Tribal Nations #PAG30 #DNA #OpenData

Dr. Kyle Hill talking about the importance of positionality in #Indigenous research. “The burden is on all of us.” An excellent talk on community, relations, accountability, and respect in #research and #academia. #IndigiData2023

We are so grateful that Sean Sherman (The Sioux Chef) took time to greet our visiting IndigiData Indigenous #science #students to discuss #Indigenous food #sovereignty & respecting our traditional foods and foodways. And the food at Indigenous Food Lab is always amazing! Ahéhée'!

I love this illustration of #WomeninSTEM by Rachel Ignotofsky. The next pioneer scientist could be you!! #STEM #WomenInScience
