Genome Canada

We're excited to announce that Dr. Catalina Lopez-Correa, Chief Scientific Officer at Genome Canada, is joining the #TeamCanadaOfCancerResearch as one of the new co-chairs of the Marathon of Hope Cancer Centres Network’s Patient Working Group! As she steps into this new role, we had the privilege of connecting with Dr. Lopez-Correa to chat about how her varied experiences as a genomics scientist, a trained physician, an administrator and most recently a cancer patient herself, and how these roles have shaped her view on the promise - and challenges - of #PrecisionOncology. We hope you enjoy this enriching, informative and honest conversation as much as we did ▶ https://bit.ly/3AjDUE0 #TeamCanadaOfCancerResearch The Terry Fox Research Institute Terry Fox Foundation Health Canada | Santé Canada

Great article refering to succesful innovation on drug discovery lead by Prof. Kelly Chibale, also adressing the pressing need to advance #genomic research in Africa: “the world is failing to take advantage of African genetic diversity, and everyone could be losing out”

Always great to connect with Canadian Genomics Enterprise colleagues in person. Even better when you're celebrating world-class science!

Thrilled to support STEM learning opportunities for our next generation of problem-solvers and innovators!

Watch this recorded symposium "Let's Talk Learning" with the young people in your life (especially if they are aged 12-17). Fantastic, inspiring & empowering messages about #learning from CSA Astronaut Jeremy Hansen, Adele Diamond, PhD, FRSC and Jodi Asbell-Clarke, MA, MS, PhD, expertly moderated by Samantha Z. Yammine, PhD . Many tips, hints, strategies and encouragement for learners.
