What if I told you that scientists have figured out how to reduce the amount of methane cattle produce by changing their genetic code? Or that we have figured out how to quickly and definitively diagnose rare genetic diseases? Thanks to genomics, many of our biggest challenges from cancer, to climate change, to pandemics might help get solved.
On this episode of inFocus, I’m joined by Rob Annan, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Genome Canada – the national non-profit organization that for 20 years has invested in genomics science and innovation through academic-industry partnerships to improve the lives of Canadians.
Rob and I spoke about the science of Genomics, the opportunities it offers to solve some big problems, and what Canadians know and think about genomics.
I hope you find my discussion with Rob useful and interesting.
