Comment: Emotionally I want to accept this draft. I see the work Hermes is doing. However, the references are not about Hermes, whatever the pedigree of the media. They are what Hermes says. I was unable to see the paywalled one, which might be ok.Please find references about Hermes, when this can be accepted (0.9 probability). 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 09:51, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
Azure Hermes is a Gimuy Walubara Yidinji woman[1] who works at the intersection of genomics and indigenous community engagement, and the deputy director of the National Centre for Indigenous Genomics (NCIG) at Australian National University.[2]
Career
[edit]Hermes previously held the post of Indigenous community engagement coordinator at the organization,[3] and was responsible for informing communities about the existence of blood samples that had been held without consent at Australian National University.[4] She retroactively sought consent from the communities from which samples were taken.[5]
At the NCIG, she oversaw the return of blood samples taken in 1968 and 1969 after an outbreak of typhoid fever to the Galiwin'ku community on Elcho Island in 2019.[2] Subsequently she commissioned burial poles from the island to represent those who have passed away, and installed the burial poles at ANU during National Reconciliation Week in 2021. The Galiwin'ku community gave permission for hundreds of blood samples from those who are still alive to have their genomes sequenced.[2]
