Researchers will develop a novel cell culture model that will be used to test vaccination and therapeutic approaches to protect cats from common respiratory viruses, such as feline herpesvirus.

Researchers will investigate a simple, safe and cost-effective anesthetic technique for reducing abdominal pain in cats that undergo spay surgery.

Researchers will develop advanced DNA-based techniques for characterizing feline soft-tissue sarcomas, which may help veterinarians provide a more comprehensive diagnosis and improve their ability to choose the most appropriate clinical management strategies for these cancers.

Researchers will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a vaccine against foal pneumonia caused by the bacterium Rhodococcus equi.

Researchers will investigate how immune response cells, called dendritic cells, function and the role they play in the development of life-threatening bacterial infections in foals.

Researchers will investigate if macrophages, a type of white blood cell that forms in response to infection or injury, influence the effectiveness of stem cell therapy in horses.

Researchers will evaluate the ability of two agents to improve immune responses against Rhodococcus equi pneumonia in young foals.
