Linking Acute Chronic Diarrhea to Changes in the Gut Microbiome and Disease
Researchers will investigate if acute episodes of diarrhea in dogs have a long-term impact on gut microbes and intestinal health.
Researchers are looking at changes in gut bacteria that stimulate the immune system in dogs with inflammatory bowel disease to help identify novel ways to diagnose and treat this disease.
Researchers will determine what causes abnormal mucus secretion in dogs resulting in gallbladder mucoceles (congealed masses of mucus that can block or rupture the gallbladder), as well as seek ways to prevent or reverse this serious condition.
