The University of Guelph has received $6.6 million in federal funding from Genome Canada to launch two new genomics hubs: the Agricultural Genomics Action Centre and the Climate Smart-Data Collaboration Centre. With additional partner contributions, the total investment exceeds $15.8 million over five years. These hubs will advance climate-smart agriculture and genomics research, enhancing sustainability, resilience, and economic growth in Canada’s agri-food sector.
