Celebrating 20 years of discovery

November 2019 marked twenty years of science, discovery, innovation, collaboration and education at Canada's Michael Smith Genome Sciences Centre (GSC) at BC Cancer. Alumni, collaborators, partners, family and friends joined us in celebration at our Echelon technology platform on November 15, 2019. On November 21, the first day of the 2019 BC Cancer Summit, we held a scientific symposium, featuring 16 speakers—researchers, partners, former trainees and leaders in genomics—highlighting the technology advances, scientific investigations and groundbreaking discoveries that have helped advance genome science.
