- This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (USDA APHIS) under the Wildlife Services program (CFDA 10.028) provides $248,315 to Colorado State University to improve management of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in wild cervid populations in the Rocky Mountain National Park. Key activities include: Using paired-pool RT-QuIC and/or PMCA techniques to systematically sample and test feces and plant samples in the park for CWD...
- This federal Cooperative Agreement award of $365,846, provided by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the Cooperative Research Units (CFDA 15.812) program, will support research to deepen the understanding of the mechanisms of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) transmission in deer populations. The University of Wisconsin-Madison will conduct this 5-year project, which aims to address key knowledge gaps around CWD, including prion detection and variation, environmental transmission,...
- This five-year, $2.5 million Project Grant was awarded by the United States Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture on August 1, 2022 under the Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) competitive grants program (CFDA #10.310). The grant funds modeling of chronic wasting disease transmission between deer and the environment, with a focus on quantifying prion concentrations and dissipation rates across potential reservoir sites like mineral licks, scent...
- The University of Montana was awarded a $125,731.10 Cooperative Agreement by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) under the Wildlife Services program (CFDA 10.028). The purpose of the award is to facilitate the development of a multistate adaptive management approach for chronic wasting disease (CWD) in deer populations. The funding will support efforts to evaluate CWD surveillance and management strategies, as well as how deer harvest...
- This $156,267 federal Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (USDA APHIS) under the Wildlife Services program (CFDA 10.028) will support research on chronic wasting disease (CWD) in wild white-tailed deer populations. The key objectives are to verify the CWD status of 100 positive and 100 negative wild deer samples using real-time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC) assays, optimize and validate RT-QuIC on...
- This $117,050 Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (USDA APHIS) Wildlife Services program (CFDA 10.028) will support continued research on chronic wasting disease (CWD) at the National Wildlife Research Center. The award builds on a previous phase of work, allowing the research team to scale up in-house production of purified recombinant prion protein used in the RT-QuIC CWD detection assay. This will enable expanded...
- This $181,522 cooperative agreement from the U.S. Geological Survey will support research on chronic wasting disease diagnostics and transmission dynamics in mule deer in Wyoming. Funded activities under the award include field sampling of mule deer to optimize non-lethal chronic wasting disease testing methods. Global positioning system collar data will also be analyzed to examine mule deer movement patterns, habitat use, and landscape factors related to disease prevalence in the region....
