Looking forward to attending #Biocon2025 this week in Saint John, N.B.! Thanks Research N.B. for putting together another excellent lineup again this year!

‘Minimize the damage’: Race to study MSX heats up as deadly disease hits Maritime oysters Researchers in Atlantic Canada are racing to try to solve a pressing problem — how to tackle a parasite that’s killing oysters and threatening the region’s multimillion-dollar industry.

@genomeatlantic.bsky.social is proud to be part of the collaborative push to protect Atlantic Canada's oyster industry from MSX. #MalletOysters #NewBrunswickRPC ‘Minimize the damage’: Race to study MSX heats up as deadly disease hits Maritime oysters www.ctvnews.ca/climate-and-...

Wow, what a great turnout for the 2nd annual MicroScape Biodiversity Day at The Discovery Centre this weekend! @genomeatlantic.bsky.social is a proud sponsor! Big Shout Out to Dr. John Archibald and the @dalhousieu.bsky.social volunteers for putting together a great exhibit!

Genomics is booming—and N.B. Community College is getting ahead of the curve! Simon Potter shares how NBCC's upcoming Functional Genomics Program, with a little support from @genomeatlantic.bsky.social, will help build the skilled workforce Atlantic Canada needs for this fast-growing field.

Measuring marine biodiversity can be costly. A $120K collaboration between @genomeatlantic.bsky.social @ednatecinc and Miawpukek Horizon Maritime Services could cut costs by using existing ship traffic to collect DNA samples vs hiring research vessels bit.ly/43gRtQl
