Do you ever host public meetups, discussions, presentations, etc of your work? Or are there bioinformatics meetups in Toronto more generally that you, or your staff, attend?
There is a monthly Toronto Bioinformatics meetup in the academic year <https://torbug.org/>. There are some great speakers this year! Pizza is provided after the talks. I go whenever I can but I am co-instructor of a course that meets at the same time and that sometimes requires my presence.
