Indigenous Perspectives on Equity, Diversity and Data Science in Genomics »
Genome related technologies can contribute to improving global health equity. To do so the genomic health divide must be kept in check and ultimately bridged to ensure that the lack of Indigenous genomic data does not adversely affect access to genome related health services.

A Coefficient of Determination (R2) for Generalized Linear Mixed Models »
Extensions of linear models are very commonly used in the analysis of biological data. Whereas goodness of fit measures such as the coefficient of determination (R2) or the adjusted R2 are well established for linear models, it is not obvious how such measures should be defined for generalized linear and mixed models.
