PrioNet Canada is a Network of Centres of Excellence for research into prions and prion diseases. Prion diseases are untreatable, transmissible, and fatal neurodegenerative diseases of both humans and animals.
PrioNet capitalizes on strengths in fundamental, applied, and social research to help solve the food, health safety, and socioeconomic problems associated with prion diseases such as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in humans, and chronic wasting disease (CWD) in deer and elk.
