SUMMARY:Science-Informed Policy: COVID-19 and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:The IPAC Vancouver Group and Genome BC would like to invite you to join in the conversation about Science-informed Policy: COVID-19 and Beyond. Please join us for an informative discussion and dialogue followed by a question-and-answer period. This is an online workshop.\n\n\nDate: Thursday\, April 22\, 2021\nTime: 3:00 – 4:30 pm PT \nSince 2020\, the latest findings surrounding COVID-19 have been shaping public policy and associated public communication with unprecedented speed. Scientific evidence has been informing decision-making in real time across multiple policy domains. This crisis has required coordination and collaboration among different sectors\, such as governments\, funders\, researchers\, healthcare agencies and policymakers. Where did existing systems help and where did they fall short? What lessons can we draw on for future evidence-informed policy and action? Can these lessons be translated into science-informed decisions within a range of programs and policies\, such as climate change? \nSpeakers:\nChristian Hansen – Regional Executive Director\, Innovation\, Science and Economic Development Canada\nNancy Olewiler – Director and Professor\, School of Public Policy\, Simon Fraser University\nNel Wieman\, Acting Deputy Chief Medical Officer\, First Nations Health Authority and President of the Indigenous Physicians Association in Canada\nDavid Patrick\, Director of Research\, BC Centre for Disease Control\, and Professor\, UBC School of Population and Public Health \nModerator:\nGeorge Poulakidas – Genomics and Society Advisor\, Genome BC \n\nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Mapping your Career Journey: Lessons on Academia to Industry and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:More than ever\, science is a critical backbone to building\, supporting and even protecting our world. To fully harness the potential of science and the discoveries being made in research labs around Canada\, we not only need a strong focus on R&D\, but also on people and early and continuous professional development. The Science to Business Network (www.s2bn.org) was founded 10 years ago to break down silos between universities\, industry\, government and the non-profit sector and to foster a culture of collaboration\, partnership and mutual understanding. Importantly\, the S2BN has been focused on building a network of innovative and creative individuals within and around STEM disciplines. Through panel discussions\, workshops\, mentoring programs\, a podcast and other collaborative initiatives\, the S2BN now has 9 chapters across Canada led by more than 70 grassroots volunteers whose activities now reach more than 2500 people a year. Through his inspiring journey from academia to industry (and beyond)\, Dr Bruce Seet will share his career story\, outline how and why he founded the S2BN and the lessons he’s learned along way that will help you better shape your career journey. \nPresentation Objectives:\nHighlight why professional development and career management matter\nReview key steps to identify\, assess\, and navigate your career options\nLearn how to communicate the value of your STEM degree to employer \nSpeaker Information:\nBruce Seet\, PhD\, MBA\nPresident/CEO and Founder\, Science to Business Network\nAdjunct Professor\, Department of Molecular Genetics\, University of Toronto\nDirector\, Medical Affairs\, Sanofi Pasteur \nDr. Bruce Seet is a leader and advocate for enhancing Canada’s innovation infrastructure and broadening professional development opportunities for highly qualified personnel (HQP) in STEM fields. Bruce earned a B.Sc (Honours Physiology) and a Ph.D. (Microbiology and Immunology) from Western University (London\, Ontario)\, followed by a postdoctoral fellowship at Mt. Sinai Hospital (Toronto) and an MBA at the University of Toronto. He started his career in industry at GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) in 2006 holding a variety of roles from medical affairs\, marketing and market access. Since 2014\, he’s worked as a Director\, Medical Affairs at Sanofi Pasteur. Among his volunteer work\, Bruce founded and serves as the President/CEO of the Science to Business Network (www.s2bn.org)\, a national\, multi-chapter\, non-profit organization. As a science communicator\, he’s a frequent speaker\, panelist and event moderator\, and is also the host and executive producer of the S2BN Podcast. He also volunteers his time with BioCanRx\, an NCE that accelerates the development of cancer immunotherapeutics in Canada. Dr. Seet is also an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Molecular Genetics at the University of Toronto. He was recently recognized for his volunteer work by Life Science’s Ontario (LSO) with their 2020 LSO Community Service Award.

SUMMARY:International Workshop on HIV & Women 2021
DESCRIPTION:The 11th International Workshop on HIV & Women is scheduled to take place on 26-28 April 2021 as a virtual meeting. \nThe International Workshop on HIV & Women has now completed its 10th year and continues to evolve. It is an outstanding opportunity for health care providers\, researchers\, government\, industry\, and community representatives to discuss\, debate\, and further their knowledge on the issues related to HIV and women. \nThe format of the workshop enables attendees to learn from experts in the field of HIV and related health\, and then discuss the issues\, gaps\, and opportunities for further learning and research. Many of the attendees continue to participate each year and have formed valuable relationships and partnerships that have led to collaborative projects. \nThe enthusiasm and dedication of the participants is palpable throughout the workshop. The debates and round tables are an important vehicle to discuss the issues and challenge dogmas. Over the years\, the number and quality of submitted abstracts have continued to improve. The workshop also provides a forum for new investigators to present their work and to personally meet with experts they view as mentors and inspiration for their work. The workshop considers both local and global issues and the information learned in one setting is often translated to another. \nWe encourage you to consider joining us this year. \nWe look forward to seeing you at this unique workshop in April!

SUMMARY:Genome BC's Annual Genomics Forum
DESCRIPTION:Meeting the COVID-19 Challenge\nGenomics has played an important role in the battle against COVID-19. Scientists around the world have brought forward a herculean effort to manage the outbreak and bring an end to the pandemic. Early sequencing of the virus and data sharing has led to improved surveillance\, tracking transmission of the virus and its variants\, in real-time. New vaccines employ an mRNA sequence\, a technology years in the making. The past year has also given rise to many challenges including an increasing amount of misinformation and mistrust in science. \nThis year\, Genome BC’s Annual Genomics Forum will be held May 4 – 6\, a three day program bringing together engaging speakers with unique experiences and backgrounds to discuss these challenges and the lessons learned. \nTraditionally\, the Genomics Forum brings together leaders from the life sciences community\, business\, industry\, and policy makers. This year’s virtual event is also open to the science engaged public as well as teachers and students.
