Mr. Sossaman also wrote, “We’re pleased to announce that the canine genome sequence has been completed with the Canine Health Foundation being the largest nonprofit funder. Now, the canine sequence takes its place alongside the human and mouse genome as one of five premier tools that researchers worldwide will have at their fingertips – leading to the promise of quicker results, faster tests, and definitive therapies in the fight against canine and human disease.”
