USU Bioinformatics and Artificial Intelligence Lab Receives $1.9M to Develop Avian Flu Treatments

Highly-pathogenic avian influenza is a growing problem, both in agriculture and beyond. Waterfowl are the primary carriers, but the virus easily spreads to other birds and has made the jump to other species, from cattle to even elephant seals on remote South Atlantic islands. While it has yet to spread between humans, 71 people have contracted HPAI from animals since 2024, and two died. HPAI has had a severe impact on the poultry industry and the people who rely on it for food and employment
