Collaborative Genomics, Proteomics and Metabolomics Facility for Western Australia

西澳大利亚州的植物和动物农业每年为国家贡献60亿澳元。 生物技术在保持农业国际竞争力方面发挥着越来越重要的作用，需要对平台技术进行投资，以支持基础和应用研究。 该合作项目将提供最先进的设备，并扩展现有的联合设施，使西澳研究人员能够对基因组学，蛋白质组学和动植物的代谢功能进行高质量的研究。 这将产生新的知识，提供先进的培训，并有助于确保澳大利亚在农业生物技术方面的研发处于领先地位，使国家受益。

Plant and animal agriculture in Western Australia contributes $6billion per annum to the nation. Biotechnology is playing an increasingly important role in keeping agriculture internationally competitive, and requires investment in platform technologies to underpin basic and applied research. This collaborative project will provide state-of-the-art equipment and extend existing joint facilities that will enable WA researchers to carry out high quality research on genomics, proteomics and the metabolic functioning of plants and animals. This will generate new knowledge, provide advanced training and help ensure that Australian R&D in agricultural biotechnology stays at the forefront and benefits the nation.
