Did you know that around 90% of Americans don’t get enough fiber? But what if processed foods could help fix that? We have identified enzymes within the human gut microbiome that can unlock fiber from proteins, potentially transforming everyday foods into healthier options.

Dude, where's my fish? Find out at #UNRCABNR's #NevadaFieldDay & Ag Expo, on 5/30! We'll demo how we use tiny electronic tags, similar to pet microchips, to track animals, including fish. This helps wildlife managers better oversee animal populations and conserve species.

Centuries before biotechnology had a name, humans were already practicing it – breeding animals for resilience, fermenting foods and treating pain with plants. Today, our Biotechnology Program is solving real-world challenges in medicine, health and agriculture – check it out
