Axée sur la science et orientée vers les retombées concrètes, la recherche universitaire propose des solutions pour répondre aux besoins des Canadien‧nes.Vous voulez en savoir davantage?
Dr. @clopezcorrea (@GenomeCanada) apporte une perspective internationale sur la façon dont la génomique peut renforcer les systèmes de santé, les industries et les collectivités. Sa présentation offrira un espace de réflexion sur la manière dont le Canada peut collaborer avec des partenaires partout dans le monde pour bâtir la résilience et faire progresser la découverte.
Catalina Lopez-Correa est une figure de proue de la génomique à l’échelle mondiale qui a contribué à façonner le paysage de la recherche canadienne. Après avoir reçu elle-même un diagnostic de cancer du sein, elle milite pour élargir l’accès à l’oncologie de précision et au dépistage génomique.

Check out @ppforumca report - 🇨🇦 must urgently adopt bold strategies to strengthen its life sciences sector. #2 explicitly calls for investment in areas such as AI in healthcare, #genomics, drug development & diagnostics. @GenomeCanada.Proud to be part of PPF Life Sciences group
🚨 New report alert | Canada’s life sciences sector is in Code Red. Here’s how decisionmakers can turbocharge growth and protect the #health of Canadians.
Canada faces a national health security emergency and must address escalating threats to the country’s health and economic #security.
The report, titled Canada’s Code Red, outlines bold, practical actions the federal government must quickly take to protect the health of Canadians.⬇️

ALT Genome Prairie announced today that two new projects focused on environmental DNA surveillance have been approved for $855,000 in federal funding via Genome Canada. These two projects, based out of the University of Saskatchewan, the University of Regina, and the University of Manitoba, are focused on understanding the genetic material of organisms found in the environment, including land, air and water. This information helps researchers and scientists to identify and monitor species, track biodiversity, and study ecosystems. One project, “One Health Surveillance for Antimicrobial Resistance and Emerging Pathogens by Targeted Metagenomics at Human-Livestock-Environment Interfaces” (One Health), will be based out of the University of Regina. This project aims to detect the presence of human and livestock pathogens while monitoring the presence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the environment.
