It was organized by Rebecca Tsosie, the ILP’s Executive Director, Kim TallBear, Assistant Professor of Science, Technology and Environmental Policy at the University of California, Berkeley, and Jenny Reardon, Assistant Professor of Sociology and Faculty Affiliate in the Center for Biomolecular Science and Engineering at the University of California, Santa Cruz.
