June 11, 2020 – Mast cell tumors are one of the most common skin cancers in dogs. Learn about diagnosis and treatment, and what signs to look out for as a pet owner.
This fellowship investigates genetic lesions in canine mast cell tumors using cytogenetic and expression analysis.
Researchers will identify new therapy targets for malignant mast cell tumors, acommon and aggressive cancer in dogs.
The goal of this study is to determine new strategies for treating canine mast cell tumors based on the targeting of a DNA-packaging protein called NDY1.
Researchers will investigate differences in mast cell subtypes found in the airways of heathy and asthmatic horses to help identify better diagnostic and treatment strategies for equine asthma.
