Researchers will determine if stem cells from horse bone marrow can reduce bacterial biofilm formation and associated inflammation that cause treatment failure and tissue damage in horses with orthopedic infections.

Researchers will use systems biology, a comprehensive way of looking at multiple factors involved in complex diseases, to study equine metabolic syndrome, a metabolic and hormonal disorder and the most common cause of laminitis in horses.

Researchers will investigate the potential of a platelet-derived product called platelet lysate as a non-antibiotic option to treat persistent infections in horses.

Researchers will investigate the association between obesity and asthma in horses to improve our understanding of the disease process and care of these patients.

Researchers will determine how antimicrobial infections emerge and/or persist in veterinary hospitals to help better inform prevention measures.

Researchers will evaluate the long-term effects of an early exercise intervention on bone development in foals.

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.
