Grant: Canada Research Chairs

$200,000.00
Chaire de recherche du Canada en génomique fonctionnelle appliquée à la reproduction animale
EF 2017-18
Résumé
The Chair program was at the root of an international leadership position in the field of reproductive genomics. We created a national embryo consortium in 2000-2005 which became international with the NSERC strategic network EmbryoGENE from 2008-2014. This program was key to the building of the most comprehensive and easy to use transcriptomic platform in bovine followed by the unique and new epigenetic platform made for bovine DNA methylation analysis. We are now in a position to study and explain the effects of the environment on the early embryo and the possible effects of specific environmental factors that are observed after birth.
