Amazed by the work of the other laureates and inspired by the fact that, often, the most critical developments in #genomics research are enabled by curiosity-driven investigations. Including our beloved next-gen sequencing technologies.

Proud of our University of Toronto MD/PhD student Jonathan for being awarded a CIHR CGS scholarship to start his degree with us this Fall, investigating the roles of microglia in myelin health! Congrats 🎉🥳

Bravo spécialement aux deux lauréats canadiens, Prof. Meghan Azad, PhD, pour sa recherche sur le lait maternel humain et le microbiome, et Christian Landry, pour ses approches inédites de la génomique et de la biologie des systèmes.

Tout ça grâce au support des CIHR et du NSERC / CRSNG depuis le début de ma carrière.

I am delighted to share our latest preprint!
