BioScience Talks

For this episode of BioScience Talks, we're joined by Ryan Emanuel, Associate Professor in the Nicholas School of the Environment at Duke University. He joined us to discuss his recent article in BioScience, The Pocosin's Lesson: Translating Respect for Indigenous Knowledge Systems in Environmental Research. In the article, he debunks a widely shared translation of the word "pocosin," and the ways in which researchers—and others—can better engage with Indigenous peoples and their knowledge systems.
