This week our Principal Investigator, Dr. Prather was inducted into the National Academy of Inventors. The NAI recognizes members that demonstrate innovation in creating outstanding inventions that have made an impact on quality of life & the welfare of society. Congrats Dr. P!
"Green fluorescent protein-transgenic animal models are often used in research as a direct model for the visualization of cellular markers. Recent advances in genetic medicine have allowed easier transfection of transgenes in larger animal models." https://t.co/cvZyfRIaZR
"The defining identity of the program is the central role it plays in productive collaborations with research programs at MU and at other institutions across the country."
