We have a long history of equine sports medicine research including studies with infrared imaging, and exercise physiology involving the pulmonary, cardiovascular, and musculoskeletal systems. Other research in animal production and well-being includes the use of new drugs for anesthesia or pain relief as well as different antibiotic and antiinflammatory therapies for clinical disease. These therapies can significantly enhance animal well-being while reducing risk of residues in meat or milk, thereby ensuring food safety. In addition to drug studies, the department is engaged in other areas of preharvest food safety. An updated list of current funded and unfunded research is available for your viewing in the Department Office located in McAdory Hall.
Faculty also list their research interests and publications on their individual web pages .
