Access and benefit-sharing: what indicators to measure ‘success’?
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2023 We examine challenges with measuring 'success' in access and benefit-sharing (ABS) of biological resources. We note a lack of indicators and draw on Pacific patent landscaping, ABS case studies, and research permit figures to highlight that ABS systems are functioning somewhat, although they are often not meeting expectations.

The Role of “Adult‐Onset” Cancer Predisposition Genes in Pediatric Cancer: A Comprehensive Review
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Current literature estimates that 10% of pediatric cancers are caused by pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) germline variants in cancer predisposition genes (CPGs). Variants in CPGs thought to increase cancer risk exclusively during adulthood are referred to as “adult‐onset” CPGs (aoCPGs).
