Native BioData Consortium

Great #data #sovereignty READ! Thanks @samjscience @Nature featuring @NativeBio and cofounders @kstsosie @kfox @science_punx “How rapidly we can sequence.. create data... commodify — I don’t think that the policy has caught up,” says Fox.

Canada, the "nice Settlers" are showing their evil side. After the passage of Bill C5 and the Assembly of First Nations series of resolutions against it in Sept 2025, the Canadian provinces are punching back hard. We aren't sure there are "Nice Settlers" cbc.ca/news/indigenou….

We have to put a stop to the Polite debate and tone policing tactics of Academia and other spaces. We have to assert our will in every venue. We do not need to ask permission or negotiate power. This video is such a good example of First Nations power. linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

Our work with Bridge2AI and AIREADI has been so rewarding. We are honored to work with such high-level academics and thought leaders in the AI space. We were happy to host the AIREADI Teaming, Data Tools and Data Collection Primary Investigators In the Cheyenne River Sioux Nation

Indigenous data sovereignty isn't new. What's new is the scale of demand for data and the risk that decisions get made without tribes at the table. Joseph Yracheta of @NativeBio explains why tribal leadership matters now. #sponsored nativenewsonline.net/sponsored-cont…
