Another new term we invented together with a colleague is specimen-drain: the export of valuable biodiversity, ancient DNA, or other samples to countries of the global North that have money to process them coupled with losing the lead on the respective research papers

Before somebody else comes up with it, here is a new term I invented: brain-redrain

Definition: brains that return to their underdeveloped home country in the hope to help improving things but then leave again since they are frustrated because nothing will ever change there.
