Indigenous peoples and communities have long been creators, users, and keepers of data. Join our panel of experts as they explore the ways Indigenous communities currently use scientific data as tools of care. From genomic data to ecological data and sociological data, they share how information is used to push for sovereignty and self-determination.

This event will be held both online and in-person at the Research Commons. It is open to student, faculty, and staff researchers from all disciplines, including those outside of Ohio State.

Featuring Panelists:

Shereena Baker, University of New Mexico Department of Native American Studies

René Castillo, The Ohio State University School of Earth Sciences

Natasha Myhal, The Ohio State University School of Environment and Natural Resources

Leah Nez, Case Western Reserve University Department of Bioethics

Shavagne Scott, The Ohio State University Department of African American and African Studies

This event is presented in partnership with the American Indian Studies program, a part of the Center for Ethnic Studies.
