Planned Studies
Arthritis Biomarkers
Our goal is to simplify diagnosing osteoarthritis. Our goal is to use blood markers instead of more invasive tests.
Elbow Dysplasia
Our goal is to identify which treatment works for elbow osteoarthritis in dogs including whether joint replacements are an option.
Arthritis Progression
Our goal is to develop a translational model that can be used across the globe. We will establish the degree of progression after TPLO (knee) surgery.
