n July 2004, Genome Canada launched Competition III, in an effort to support world-leading genomics and proteomics research at the highest level of scientific excellence.

Results for Competition III were announced on August 25th, 2005 and $346 million was invested in 33 innovative and exciting large-scale projects for a duration of 3 to 4 years.
