…representation of human populations in genomic research.

Keolu Fox connects Polynesian wayfinding, evolutionary thought and genomic research through Indigenous Futurism. Genomes of descendants of Pacific navigators can illuminate migration histories and contemporary health challenges, while genetic data can support land reclamation, public health and cultural preservation. The lecture examines community-led research, benefit sharing and Indigenous decision-making as alternatives to extractive genomic practices. Fox also considers mobile genomic technologies that could bring research to remote communities, with applications in conservation genetics
