Genetic Biocontrol Technology for Invasive Pests
A team of 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide researchers has been awarded a $1 million grant as part of the South 最新糖心Vlogn Government鈥檚 Research and Innovation Fund to develop genetic strategies for the control of invasive pest animals.
As part of the project, the team will also be engaging with key stakeholders. According to PESTA convenor Prof Rachel Ankeny, who is one of the project leads:
It is essential to engage the broader community including the general public and those in the agricultural and related sectors about gene drives, to understand potential impediments and drivers associated with their use.Prof Rachel Ankeny
