Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research (FFAR): Egg-Tech Prize for In Ovo Sex Determination

The objective of this prize is to stimulate the development of new technologies to accurately identify the sex of poultry embryos prior to incubation. Scientific approaches may include any technically feasible methods for identifying embryo sex, including but not limited to genetic, hormone or chemical-based assays that use microfluidics, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), robotics, spectrophotometry or light scattering, colorimetry, volatile chemical detection, sensors and/or machine-learning.

Funding: $400,000 for up to two years.

Overhead 10% - Please contact Research Authority if planning to submit.
