SUMMARY:Genome BC's 2021 Annual Genomics Forum: COVID-19 - A Moment of Importance for Genomics
DESCRIPTION:Genomics has played an important role in the battle against COVID-19. Scientists around the world have brought forward a herculean effort to manage the outbreak and bring an end to the pandemic. Early sequencing of the virus and data sharing has led to improved surveillance\, tracking transmission of the virus and its variants\, in real-time. New vaccines employ an mRNA sequence\, a technology years in the making. The past year has also given rise to many challenges including an increasing amount of misinformation and mistrust in science.

SUMMARY:Genome BC's 2020 Annual Genomics Forum: The Four D's of Artificial Intelligence
DESCRIPTION:In light of current public health challenges\, Genome BC has made the decision to cancel our 2020 Genomics Forum\, scheduled for April 30th. \nHowever\, the subject of artificial intelligence and genomics remains very important to us and we intend to hold a Genomics Forum on this topic as soon as it makes sense to do so. We are not only committed to the topic\, but also to the format and the excellent group of panelists we have identified. It will truly make for an exciting and engaging event. \nIn the meantime\, thank you for your interest in Genome BC’s Genomics Forum. We look forward to seeing you at our events in the future. \n

SUMMARY:17th Annual Genomics Forum "Cannabis: Cultivating Knowledge\, Growing Innovation"
DESCRIPTION:Canada’s legalization of cannabis has heightened the need to understand more about the properties and applications of cannabinoids spurring an expanded interest in cannabis research and development. After decades of prohibition\, there is still much to learn about cannabis compared to other botanicals. Legalization introduces a whole new spectrum of cannabis opportunities beyond medical applications creating an urgent need for research to address gaps in knowledge on the effects and safety of cannabis as a whole — important areas of research that will help drive cannabis regulation.Genomics can aid in the area of cannabis research for enhanced production efficiency\, the creation of precision-designed varieties of cannabis capable of producing specific benefits\, and help understand individual variability in cannabis response. The Forum will also help explore the unique opportunity BC and Canada have to lead the world around research and application of genomic technologies in the Cannabis industry.Genome BC is pleased to invite you to attend our 17th Annual Genomics Forum “Cannabis: Cultivating Knowledge\, Growing Innovation.” Discussion at this year’s forum will examine topical issues surrounding cannabis under four unique areas:\n\nHuman Health: Genomics & Response to Cannabis\nCannabis Plant Genomics & Agrifood Sector\nRegulatory\, Legal\, & Ethical Aspects of Cannabis \nCommercial Opportunities\n\nJoin us. We look forward to your participation in a day of thought-provoking discussion with some of BC’s most engaged life and social sciences researchers\, government leaders\, and emerging industry partners.\nWe encourage you to share this invite with your colleagues\, partners or members of your team who might benefit from the discussion\, networking and collaboration opportunities. Seating is available on a first come\, first served basis.This is a no-cost event. As we are providing breakfast and lunch\, we ask that you only register if you are committed to attend. If you do register and are unable to attend\, please contact us in advance so we can adjust catering and/or extend space to others.  The agenda is available here. \n\nPLEASE NOTE:  Entry to the SBN Poster Contest is now closed
