Galaxy CCRO Inc., announces the expansion of our clinical research projects to include pursuing the development of a field test for the detection of CWD in deer and cervids.

Our solution will harness developments in protein detection technology, tissue imaging, artificial intelligence and environmental science to develop a rapid and sensitive test for CWD that hunters can use during field dressing.

Safe Hunting for Animals, People and the Environment

SHAPE is a consortium of clinical, veterinary, technology, diagnostics and environmental partners formed to address the rising challenge posed by Chronic Wasting Disease.

Our strategy covers multiple aspects of CWD and is aimed to protect the human and deer populations before the problem becomes insurmountable.

Chronic wasting disease has been detected in free-ranging cervids in 36 U.S. states and four Canadian provinces and in captive cervid facilities in 22 states and three provinces.
