Briefly

The article addresses the issue of 'domestic helicopter research,' where wealthy institutions exploit local poorer organizations for research without equitable collaboration.

While these practices mirror international exploitation, they occur even within the same neighborhoods in the US. Many resource-poor institutions are often treated as mere participants rather than collaborators, perpetuating inequity in research practices.
