A new RNA tool is speeding up the fight against sleeping sickness
A new CRISPR-based RNA test detects animal trypanosomes, which helps track parasites that pose a threat to livestock in Africa and monitor the transmission of human-infectious species. This study was conducted by an international consortium led by the Institut Pasteur. Its outcomes are wholly aligned with both the Institut Pasteur's long-standing mission of fighting infectious disease threats and the World Health Organization's goal of eliminating human African trypanosomiasis by 2030.
