Harnessing Next-Generation Technologies To Tackle Major Food-Borne Parasites And Design New Interventions

Grant number: LP130100208 | Funding period: 2014 - 2017

Completed

Abstract

Frontier technologies will be used in this project to unlock the molecular secrets of parasites which cause serious food-borne diseases in animals. The quantum leap made here will lead to radically new ways of treating and controlling such diseases, and provide outstanding international visibility of Australian science and a solid skills/knowledge-base.
