Understanding Why Cats Respond Differently to Common Heart Medication
Researchers will determine if genetic mutations are directly linked to how well or how poorly a cat with heart disease responds to clopidogrel, a blood thinner used to prevent life-threatening blood clot complications.
Evaluating the Effectiveness of a Commonly Prescribed Drug for Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Researchers will evaluate the effectiveness of omeprazole, a gastric acid suppressant commonly prescribed to treat gastrointestinal symptoms in cats with chronic kidney disease.

Developing New Diagnostic and Prognostic Tests for Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP)
Researchers will explore novel ways to diagnose and predict the likelihood of a cat to develop feline infectious peritonitis, a highly fatal viral disease with no known cure.
Combating Feline Herpesvirus-Related Upper Respiratory Infections
Researchers will identify genes responsible for the lack of immune defenses associated with feline herpesvirus, a major cause of upper respiratory infections in cats, with the aim of developing a more effective vaccine.
