The Government of Canada has launched the Canadian Genomics Strategy with a seven year, $175.1M investment. This initiative—led by ISED, CIHR, and NSERC—will strengthen Canada’s ability to apply genomics in key sectors including agriculture, medicine, and clean technology. “Today’s launch of the Canadian Genomics Strategy will help solidify Canada’s position as a global leader in genomics innovation and place our talented researchers, innovators and businesses at the forefront of this cutting-edge work,” said Canada Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry François-Philippe Champagne. “By investing in the commercialization of genomics technologies, our government is securing a healthier and more prosperous future for Canadians for generations to come.”
