2021

Document text

Principal Investigator: William  Elkins
Organization: NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ALLERGY AND INFECTIOUS DISEASES
Fiscal Year: 2021
Award: $10,368
Funding agency: National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases

Transgenic animals: Using conventional transgenic approach, several transgenic lines were created for two independent projects, a) ACE2-GFP receptor and b) TMPRSS2 endothelial cell surface protein for Dr. Hickman.  
COVID-funding: A grant proposal submitted by MGGM was awarded $35,000 funding for the creation of humanized ACE2 NOD/ShiLtJ mice as model for underlying conditions in humans. 
Sperm Cryopreservation: Twelve sperm cryopreservation projects submitted during COVID-19 pandemic were successfully tested for QC by IVF followed by embryo transfer to the pseudo-pregnant mothers.
