This week, we express our sincere gratitude to our ADDL Accessioning and Molecular Teams (and cross trained individuals).  A faculty member shared, \u201cIndiana\u2019s poultry industry is being hit hard by HPAI (highly pathogenic avian influenza), necessitating increased testing. The ADDL\u2019s Accessioning and Molecular teams, including individuals from other sections who have cross-trained, have stepped up to handle this dramatic influx in caseload in support of Indiana\u2019s poultry industry. This requires long days and weekend hours, to meet the increased demands for sample handling, data entry, performing the tests, and communicating with state and federal partners. We appreciate you!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
