Unpublished genomic data–how to share?

To Share or Not to Share SHARE-it: Lessons Learnt

The purpose of this position paper is to discuss the authors’ reflections on the use of Assistive Technologies to support user’s autonomy to perform the necessary Activities of Daily Living (ADL). In special, we will address the use of Agent-based robotic services.

Unpublished Manuscript

We here review the evolutionary theory relevant to the question of human cooperation and compare the results to other theoretical perspectives. Then, we will summarize some of our own work, distilling a compound explanation that we believe gives a plausible account of human cooperation and selfishness. This account leans heavily on group selection on cultural variation but also includes lower l...

Unpublished Appendix to “ Measuring School Segregation ”

The share of human genomic DNA under selection estimated from human-mouse genomic alignments.

recently become available for two mammalian genomes, human (Lander et al. 2001; Venter et al. 2001) and mouse (Waterston et al. 2002). This raises the possibility of using comparative genomics to estimate what fraction of the human genome evolves under purifying selection. Lacking genomes of other mammals, this comparative exercise is still in its preliminary stages. However, a rough estimate h...

To share or not to share is the question

Data sharing is increasingly becoming an essential component of clinical practice and biomedical research. The debate has shifted from whether or not to exchange data to how best to achieve optimal sharing. This raises new ethical and legal challenges, particularly with regard to consent and privacy. This article discusses recent developments in the formulation of best practice guidelines for d...
