Building Research Capacity

Genome Prairie enables regional researchers to participate in Genome Canada competitions and other provincial initiatives.

GenTrac: Genomics Translation and Commercialization Initiative

Genome Prairie supports genomics research and commercialization within Saskatchewan and Manitoba and beyond. Genome Prairie is launching the Genomics Translation and Commercialization (GenTrac) Program to support public-private innovation in our Region. Each project involves collaboration between academic researchers and industry receptors to address market opportunities or operational needs identified by the private sector. 

Genomic Applications Partnership Program (GAPP) Initiative

As a core delivery instrument of the Canadian Genomics Strategy, the Genomic Applications Partnership Program (GAPP) funds research and development projects that support public-private innovation. Each project involves collaborations between academic researchers and industry receptors—organizations positioned to apply research outcomes to address market opportunities or operational needs that have been identified by the private sector.
