National Program Leaders at USDA (ARS and NIFA) invite you to comment on a draft document entitled, “Genome to Phenome: Improving Animal Health, Production, and Well-Being” which was developed as a result of a workshop conducted in November 2017 (https://www.animalgenome.org/share/meetings/Genome2Phenome). This document is intended to identify the priorities of the broader agricultural animal genomics and production communities and serve as a new USDA Blueprint for Animal Genome Research through 2027.
We would appreciate comments on the draft document from the agricultural animal genomics community, Please provide broad comments on the document while avoiding advocacy solely for your own research interests. We are particularly interested in topics that are not covered, or that should be covered in more detail. We are not asking for extensive revisions or editing, and will only work with comments obtained thru this platform. We will accept comments thru September 23rd, 2018.
For detailed instructions on how to use the platform, please see link to the User Manual on the right hand side of this web page. Each section has a link that takes you directly to the text for that section. There are also links to the full draft document and the AnimalGenome.org meeting site in the right hand margin of the page.
