Genome British Columbia Funding Opportunities

Genomics BC funding opportunities

Genome BC invests in research that aligns with the needs of areas of strategic importance to British Columbia such as health, forestry, fisheries and aquaculture, agrifood, energy, mining and environment. By working collaboratively with government, academia and industry, Genome BC s goal is to translate the excellent research carried out in universities into applications that will ultimately generate social and economic benefits for BC and Canada. Genome BC s co-funding approach to research investment follows neither a government-only granting council model, nor an industry-only portfolio management approach. It is a unique approach that relies on collaborative research agreements and commitments to milestones and outputs, a model perhaps best described as contract research. It is important to note that discovery science is an engine that drives future developments in genomics and Genome BC funds research across the research continuum from discovery through application through translation.
