Finding Genetic Mutations Associated with Endocrine Disease
Researchers will identify potential disease-causing genetic mutations associated with equine pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction, also known as equine Cushing’s disease, a condition that can cause endocrine disease in horses, ponies and donkeys.
Studying Hormonal Disorder and Novel Treatment Strategy
Researchers will investigate how the immune system impacts the development of the pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction and determine if antioxidant treatments might slow or prevent this hormonal disorder in horses and ponies.
Studying the Effect of Obesity on Reproductive Health
Researchers will determine if being overweight or obese decreases fertility in stallions.
Developing Health and Well-being Guidelines for Air-Transported Horses
Researchers will investigate how horses are managed when transported by air to optimize their welfare, identifying factors that increase or decrease the risk of health and behavioral problems.
Working Toward a Genetic Test for Heart Arrhythmias
Researchers will investigate if genetic variants can help identify horses at high risk of developing potentially fatal cardiac arrhythmias.
Understanding How Diet Composition Influences Insulin Response in Horses with Equine Metabolic Syndrome
