Genomic approaches to the control of Bovine Respiratory Disease Complex

The bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in beef cattle, causing considerable economic losses. This project explores the role of host genetics in shaping the composition of the microbiome, which is crucial in determining health and disease in ruminants. Here the team will characterize the genomic and metabolic markers, …

Cardiotoxicity Prevention Research Initiative (CAPRI) Phase 1 – Registry

Living with cancer longer is possible due to better cancer treatments but these treatments can damage the cardiovascular system. This can happen in up to 15-20% of people receiving treatment for breast and other aggressive cancers. The purpose of this project is to develop a state-of-the-art database system, called the CArdiotoxicity Prevention Research Investigation (CAPRI). …
