Krystal Tsosie is an Assistant Professor in the School of Life Sciences at Arizona State University. She is also Associate Director of the Biodiversity Knowledge Integration Center at ASU. She also co-founded the Native BioData Consortium, the first Indigenous-led biological and data repository operating within the jurisdictional bounds of a US Tribal Nation. Her genomics research interests are specific to Indigenous communities and people in health, biomedicine, conservation biology, and paleogenomics. She is also an expert in bioethics, data policy and governance, and developing digital data tools rooted in machine learning approaches to advance the sharing and informed consent of genomic data. Her research and Indigenous community advocacy are challenging ethical norms of research and policy across scientific disciplines.
