Researchers will study whether genetic exposures influence onset and age-of-onset for the most commonly acquired urinary incontinence in dogs, urethral sphincter mechanism incompetence.
Studies show that the most commonly isolated bacterial pathogens in canine ear infections are two species of Staphylococcus. Researchers have previously shown that fosmidomycin, an antibiotic and antimalarial agent, is...
Cancer researchers have been improving treatments for different cancers by identifying genetic variants (errors in the genetic code) in the tumors, and by identifying or developing new drugs that can...
Researchers are conducting a clinical trial to evaluate the ability of the drug trametinib to control tumor growth and improve outcomes for dogs with histiocytic sarcoma, an aggressive and usually fatal canine cancer.
Glaucoma is a leading and painful cause of blindness in dogs. Currently available interventions only delay blindness, highlighting the need for new and efficient therapies that preserve sight in affected...
Researchers will study the health and well-being of service dogs paired with military veterans with post-traumatic stress disorders. They will use their findings to inform new tools to assess and track the well-being of these specially trained dogs.
Using genotyping data from the Golden Retriever Lifetime Study, researchers will conduct a study to help identify genomic regions involved with increased susceptibility for hemangiosarcoma in American golden retrievers.
