      "This project will support the firm in furthering their development of nanobody-based prophylaxis agents targeting two economically-important pathogens of farmed shrimp. Nanobodies targeting one of the pathogens (Vibrio parahaemolyticus) will be validated in an industrial setting with field trials using a commercially-relevant shrimp species and proof of concept of the nanobodies' efficacy against the other pathogen (White Spot Syndrome Virus) will be demonstrated at the bench scale in a surrogate in vivo model.",
      "Develop novel feed additive that specifically target and eliminate Salmonella at its source: the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of poultry.",
      "Based on NovoBind's novel single-chain antibody fragment (nanobody) technology, the goal of this project is the development and in vivo proof-of-concept of engineered nanobodies to be used as a feed additive to reduce or eliminate Vibrio and White Spot Syndrome Virus infections in the gastrointestinal tract of farmed shrimp.",
      "The objective of this project is to develop a novel, low-cost, bio-produced technology that targets the microorganisms responsible for poultry coccidiosis and necrotic enteritis while reducing wasted input costs, the spread of antimicrobial resistance and environmental contamination by antimicrobials.",
      "Research and develop a scientific and commercialization roadmap and conduct a preliminary technology evaluation for using nanobodies as a new agent to control avian influenza.",
      "This Youth project will provide employment for a recent graduate in the role of a research technician - antibody discovery, at a livestock and aquaculture health biotechnology company",

      "Through the application of national and local priorities, the CSJ program seeks to provide youth who face barriers to employment with access to work opportunities. Funded employers must demonstrate that they are providing quality work experiences for youth that provide opportunities to develop and improve their skills. The CSJ program is delivered by the Department of ESD."
