title: Te tuhirau kōrero

authors: Corbett, Mahaki

subjects: Reo Māori

abstract: Ko tō tātou reo, he reo tapu, he reo kōrero, he reo pohewa, he reo reiuru, he reo rauriki.  E rā, he piringa tē taea te whakangaro atu, nā te mea ko te reo Māori te manawatanga mai i a koe e tūhono ai koe ki ngā mea o mua, ki ngā mea o muri, ki ngā mea o nāianei (J. Peri, kōrero ā-waha, Hune 3, 2013). Heoi anō, i ngā rā nei, kua whānau hou mai te reo Māori pā tuhi-ā-waea ki te ao mārama me te aha kua whakarerekē a ia i te āhuatanga o tō tātou reo. Ko te kaupapa o tēnei tuhinga, he whakatakoto kupu mai i te ngākau aroha me te wete hoki i te taumata whakaaro e whakahākiri nei ki tēnei mangainga o te ao hangarau. Waihoki, kua nahanaha i ahau ngā wāhanga, ā, e whitu ēnei kua tuhia ki te kupu waiwaiā, kia whakapāho-ā-rorohiko atu rānei i te whia maruāpō mō te ātaahuatanga o te pā tuhi-ā-waea. Nō reira rā, koiā te taonga whakapiripiri e koroa nei e te ringa, purutia kia tata, whakamaua kia tina!

title: Engaging Māori in Biobanking and Genetic Research: Legal, Ethical and Policy Challenges

authors: Beaton, Angela

subjects: Indigenous

abstract: Publically funded biobanking initiatives and genetic research should contribute towards reducing inequalities in health by reducing the prevalence and burden of disease. It is essential that Maori and other Indigenous populations share in health gains derived from these activities. The Health Research Council of New Zealand has funded a research project (2012-2015) to identify Maori perspectives on biobanking and genetic research, and to develop cultural guidelines for ethical biobanking and genetic research involving biospecimens. This review describes relevant values and ethics embedded in Maori indigenous knowledge, and how they may be applied to culturally safe interactions between biobanks, researchers, individual participants, and communities. Key issues of ownership, privacy, and consent are also considered within the legal and policy context that guides biobanking and genetic research practices within New Zealand. Areas of concern are highlighted and recommendations of international relevance are provided. To develop a productive environment for "next-generation" biobanking and genomic research,"‘next-generation" regulatory solutions will be required.

title: Practical Hydration Solutions for Sports.

authors: Belval, Luke N.

subjects: athletics

abstract: Personalized hydration strategies play a key role in optimizing the performance and safety of athletes during sporting activities. Clinicians should be aware of the many physiological, behavioral, logistical and psychological issues that determine both the athlete's fluid needs during sport and his/her opportunity to address them; these are often specific to the environment, the event and the individual athlete. In this paper we address the major considerations for assessing hydration status in athletes and practical solutions to overcome obstacles of a given sport. Based on these solutions, practitioners can better advise athletes to develop practices that optimize hydration for their sports.
