Thank you very much, Madam Chair, and I want to join my colleagues in thanking you both for being here. It's been very enlightening and somewhat entertaining. I would have to admit I've really appreciated your very down-to-earth approach and your talking about the work you do.
I am familiar with Genome Canada more through Genome Prairie, definitely through the ongoing support you've received from our government. I come from Saskatchewan.
Dr. Meulien, tell me about your relationship with, I think you mentioned, six subsidiaries of Genome Canada, and talk about either how you work with them in terms of collaborating on or coordinating research projects and any relationships Genome Canada has with the private sector, private industry.
