  3. Federal Budget 2005 $165 M Federal Budget 2004 $60 M Federal Budget 2003 $75 M Federal Budget 2001 $140 M Federal Budget 2000 $160 M 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 Genome Canada launch Comp I projects begin Comp II projects begin Applied Health projects begin Comp III projects begin Comp I & Comp II projects end Funding and Investments

  4. Genome Canada = $600 million Partner Funding = $600 million Total Funding = $1,200 million 50 Genome Canada-funded projects are expected to end by March 31, 2006.

  5. Why International? • Leverage core Strengths • Complementary Science • Facilities • Resources • Funding • Visibility / Branding • Recruitment • Emerging Opportunities

  6. National Genomics StrategyInternational Partners U.K. Spain Norway Denmark Sweden Nether- lands Estonia Australia USA Genome Canada Genome Quebec Genome Atlantic Genome B.C. Genome Prairie Genome Ontario

  7. International Projects – Mechanisms for Support • Investigator Initiated (regular application to Genome Canada with an international partner) • Bilateral Competition (e.g., Genome Canada/Geñoma Espana) • Community Led (e.g., Bovine project) • International Consortium Initiative (e.g., SGC) September 2005

  8. The HapMap will describe patterns of DNA sequence variation. It will be a key resource to find genes and responses to drugs. USA 30 % UK 25 % Japan 25 % China 10% Canada 10 %

  9. North American Conditional Mouse Mutagenesis Project

  10. Genome CanadaGenoma EspañaJoint Projects

  11. Bovine Genome Sequencing Project (Bos taurus)

  12. International Consortium Initiative • Designed for unique international projects with potential for significant impact on Canadian science • Project must be led by a Canadian researcher and request a minimum of $50 million over 3 years • Genome Canada will pay up to 25% of total costs • Workshop funds available to help develop consortia • One proposal and five workshops have been approved to date September 2005

  13. Canada-UK Structural Genomics Consortium

  14. Public Population Project in Genomics Vision: Foster international harmonization for public projects in population genomics Canada Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands, UK Estonia United Kingdom
