Jane Schuh, assistant professor of immunology in NDSU's Department of Veterinary and Microbiological Sciences, appeared on the research and development hour of “Weekend Edition” on KFGO radio, The Mighty 790. The show aired April 18.

Schuh’s asthma research focuses on finding candidate genes or targets for asthma, on what initiates the disease process early and shows up later. It includes the assessment of innate, acute and chronic lung responses that occur during the evolution of fungus-induced airway inflammation. Schuh is submitting the results of this research to several scientific journals.

Weekend Edition features research activities from around the region, offering listeners information about how science affects daily life, as well as information about the wide variety of research conducted at NDSU.
