Researchers will establish tissue culture lines of captive and free-ranging wildlife to improve disease diagnostics, comparative biology studies and species conservation.

Researchers will investigate factors impacting the reproduction and recovery of remnant colonies of little brown bats nearly wiped out by white-nose syndrome, an emerging fungal disease.

Researchers will investigate a new laboratory test to improve diagnosis of equine metabolic syndrome, a metabolic and hormonal disorder in horses.

Researchers will study gastrointestinal parasites in wild Grauer's gorillas to learn more about disease transmission within family groups and between groups living in different habitats.

Researchers will study a reptarenavirus linked to inclusion body disease, a serious and often fatal infection of boa snake species.

Researchers will investigate how diet influences a horse's gut bacteria (microbiome) and metabolism (metabolome) and impacts insulin, key information to understanding how to feed horses at risk for laminitis.

Researchers will study the genetic causes of health problems in grey-colored alpacas, critical steps toward the development of a genetic screening test to improve the overall health of these animals.

Researchers will investigate if vaccinating mares will protect their newborn foals against pneumonia caused by the bacterium Rhodococcus equi.

Researchers will determine the optimal intravenous and intra-articular dosing protocol for amikacin, an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections in foals.

Researchers will develop an innovative and cost-effective vaccine to protect dogs and cats against infection with influenza viruses.
