I had a great time at #ICAM2024 this weekend- the future of medicine in Canada is bright! And I learned a lot from Dr. Christopher Mushquash, Dr. Nel Wieman and Jeff Reading about Indigenous health research 😀

🧑🏻‍🔬👩🏼‍🔬 We are investing in the post-secondary education that people need to gain the skills & knowledge for the jobs of today & the future. At University of British Columbia this means nearly 800 new tech seats at Michael Smith Labs to train British Columbians to enter the #LifeScience sector.
