The comparative medical genetics researchers at the Michigan State University College of Veterinary Medicine are dedicated to understanding the mechanisms that underlie genetic diseases in order to identify preventative medicine strategies and develop novel therapies and interventions. Using a One Health approach, researcher interests range from the effects of anticancer vaccines to equine neuromuscular diseases to glaucoma and other integrative lines of investigation that will produce new knowledge that can be used to improve the health of animals and humans.
