A throwback on the MVIF event from May 21st on Ethics in Microbiome Research. A difficult subject that Pascale reflects on since she started working in this field over ten years ago, especially in the context of LMICs and North-South collaborations. There are so many interests, beliefs and cultures that cross and need to be accommodated with each other, but it is a very important subject, as many of these questions are not discussed openly enough in the field right now. See here for the some ideas about how we perform research with our colleagues in LMIC and Switzerland and the (ethical and moral) issues we see with microbiome research per se: https://cassyni.com/events/Pp4VNv1AeRxM2H9rQJJ2N1
There are also many other interesting talks in this session, go watch them and contribute to the discussion so that we have better research, a more fair community involvement and equal opportunities for all in the future!
