We lead academia, government and industry to develop world-class genome sciences
that deliver social and economic benefits to British Columbia, Canada and
beyond.


OUR GOAL IS TO REALIZE THE FULL POTENTIAL OF GENOMICS.

SEE MORE IMPACTS


We work to expand understanding and drive the kind of innovation that brings
practical, evidence-based solutions to some of life’s biggest challenges.


WHY GENOMICS?

Every living organism has a genome. The insights gleaned from genomics hold the
key to unleashing innovations across a host of sectors, presenting unprecedented
opportunities to drive economic growth and improve quality of life for people
across the globe.


GENOMICS IN ACTION

We catalyze a vibrant life sciences cluster by bringing academics, industry and
government together.


FUNDING

We fund the full research continuum - discovery through application through
translation.


INNOVATION

We fund early stage companies developing innovative life science technologies.


EDUCATION

We help bring genomics into the classroom, inspiring the next generation of
scientists.


SOLUTIONS

We help industry leverage the transformative power of genomics solutions.


SOCIETAL ENGAGEMENT

A good talk can inspire action. We travel the province to bring the conversation
to you.

FOLLOW OUR PROGRESS

Stay connected with the latest news and events through social media.
