By showcasing the everyday relevance of genomics and the array of potential careers it offers, we\u2019re inspiring the next generation to envision their career paths in this cutting-edge field.<\/p><p>Check out our exciting field trip: <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/live\/sTVCOv83qzU?si=8-qBwx9oTNQXRqzz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Canadian Agriculture Literacy Month Virtual Event \u2013 Genomics in Agriculture &amp; Food<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-10feb75 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"10feb75\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-9b49512 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"9b49512\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-16d3949\" data-id=\"16d3949\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-38888f6 elementor-widget-tablet__width-initial elementor-widget-mobile__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"38888f6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">A Personal Touch<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-3b9ef42\" data-id=\"3b9ef42\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d82161b elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"d82161b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"975\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ontariogenomics.ca\/AR2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/23_TALENT-INSIDE_2-COLLEGE-3.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-8949\" alt=\"A Personal Touch\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ontariogenomics.ca\/AR2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/23_TALENT-INSIDE_2-COLLEGE-3.jpg 975w, https:\/\/www.ontariogenomics.ca\/AR2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/23_TALENT-INSIDE_2-COLLEGE-3-300x185.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ontariogenomics.ca\/AR2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/23_TALENT-INSIDE_2-COLLEGE-3-768x473.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 975px) 100vw, 975px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9d1c494 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9d1c494\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In 2022, we took our passion to the Western University Women in STEM career fair, engaging with aspiring young minds.
