CASDA is pleased to have convened 12 prominent Canadian #autism researchers in a roundtable discussion to inform policy that can lead to concrete research actions to support national autism policy development. Thank you for sharing your work with all of us at #CALS2022!
Until now, genomics research has been mostly based on people with European ancestry. But that is just one ancestral group! Research should be based on everyone’s DNA. go.usa.gov/xegsq

As 🇨🇦 responds to the new challenge of Omicron, we are in a much stronger position to rapidly respond to, track and analyze new VOC than we were when Alpha emerged a year ago. 📲 Dive into our last #CanCOGeN briefing of 2021 for an update on our progress.

Earlier this year @GenomeCanada launched the Canadian VirusSeq Data Portal. Our COVID Cloud project led by @DNAstack will be integrated into the portal, which will play an important role in Canada’s ability to manage current and future pandemics. ow.ly/znfS50FBu50
