Transmission and Prevention of Chronic Wasting Disease ROMO
Hoover E, Mathiason C, Denkers N, Haley N, Henderson D, Zabel M. Transmission and Prevention of Chronic Wasting Disease ROMO. Research Permit and Reporting System
Our laboratory seeks to understand the mode by which chronic wasting disease (CWD) is transmitted among cervids, how the causative agent is shed, how the causative prion enters and progresses through the elk's body, and means by which the infection might be prevented. Vital to this research is obtaining fresh body fluids, excreta, and tissues from elk with naturally occurring CWD.
