Genomics on the Hill 2017
On February 6, 2017 Dr. Filippo Miglior joined a group of prestigious researchers on Parliament Hill in Ottawa to showcase their projects and illustrate how they are using genomics to address important issues in Canada related to climate change. Dr. Miglior's poster (find here) showed how this project is using genomics to reduce the environmental footprint and increase the productivity of Canada's dairy industry.
August 2016. A BIG CONGRATULATIONS to Filippo Miglior on his most recent award from the Canadian Society of Animal Science (CSAS) for Technical Innovation in Enhancing Production of Safe Affordable Food for 2016. This was awarded at the 2016 Joint Annual Meeting (JAM) in Salt Lake City, Utah, July 19-23. For more information, see here!
