Saddened to hear the passing of Louis Bernatchez I had the privilege of working with Louis on several projects including the sequencing of the American Eel and the Lake Trout. The world of #genomics has lost an absolute gem. #RiP University Laval

This trend shows the increased interest & momentum around rare diseases & there is still significant work needed for rare disease drug development. Those with rare diseases are faced with exorbitant drug costs to treat their conditions and are often unable to meet these costs.

CGEn is a proud partner of the Pan-Canadian Genome Library funded by CIHR IRSC and is committed to providing the first dataset through CGEn's national HostSeq initiative. canada.ca/en/institutes-…
