UDA Recognized for Contributions Supporting  Advanced Gene Therapy Technology



UDA Technologies was recently recognized by Auburn University’s Scott-Ritchey Research Center for contributions made in support of advancing gene therapy treatments for genetic and neurologic diseases, including cancer. UDA’s contribution enabled the Scott-Ritchey Research Center to purchase “The Stunner,” an advanced gene therapy tool and integral part of the center’s current project, Accelerating Gene Therapy for Devastating Diseases.

About the Project

Biomedical scientists at the Scott-Ritchey Research Center, part of Auburn University's College of Veterinary Medicine are working everyday to improve the quality of life for people and animals through advanced studies of gene-based interventions for Alzheimer’s, Tay-Sachs diseases, Japanese encephalitis, and even rabies. As part of their most recent project, Accelerating Gene Therapy for Devastating Diseases, they look to integrate new technology into their research with the acquisition of a microfluidics-based machine known as "The Stunner."
“The Stunner” is an advanced piece of scientific equipment specifically designed to characterize viruses and nanoparticles with little variability. Work that previously took scientists up to two weeks to complete will be decreased to mere seconds with “The Stunner,” and Auburn University will be the first academic institution to incorporate this technology into biomedical research.

About the Center

Part of the Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine, the Scott-Ritchey Research Center is a state-of-the-art, interdepartmental and interdisciplinary molecular medicine research program focused on next-generation therapies to treat and cure diseases in both animals and humans. The center’s mission is to conduct groundbreaking basic and translational research to improve the health of companion animals and to facilitate their application.

Founder & President of UDA Technologies, Michael Stevens, is a proud alum of Auburn University’s College of Architecture, Design, & Construction. Headquartered in Auburn, Alabama only miles from campus, UDA Technologies remains closely connected with the university through various advocacy, education, and internship programs.
