National Missions for a More Resilient Canada.
Genome Canada has evolved from a traditional research funder to a mission-driven innovation leader. We identify specific problems upfront and build coordinated portfolios of research, infrastructure, and partnerships designed to deliver concrete real-world solutions.
Active Missions
