Indian-American University of Nevada – Reno Professor Monika Gulia-Nuss has developed ground-breaking gene-editing for ticks that could mitigate this public health concern by decreasing the ability of ticks to be a vector for disease and pathogen transition. The research team’s latest discovery, published in iScience Journal, is a new protocol that allows gene editing at the embryo stage in ticks, previously thought to be impossible. The Gulia-Nuss lab was joined in this research by Andrew Nuss, assistant professor in the Department of Agriculture, Veterinary & Rangeland Sciences and his lab from the UniversityRead More
