🎉Great news! This investment is a catalyst for benefit to Albertans paving the way for groundbreaking solutions with genomics to improve lives through precision health care, and livelihoods in Alberta’s key economic sectors, energy, agriculture and forestry.

This is tragic and predictable. Every anti-vaccine voice should take a long, deep look at what they are contributing to. Vaccines save lives, millions upon millions of lives. There is no debate.

Woohoo! So great to have Catalina back with us this week - getting the band back together! (and just in time, exciting things ahead!)

Excellent - congrats to Vincent and all involved. An important initiative!

Official launch of the Centre québécois de données génomiques (CQDG), a brand-new platform designed to harmonize and share genomic data, a powerful vector for research and innovation in #PrecisionMedicine .🧬
