The Eye’s Fragile Window: Research for rapid and reliable treatment of corneal ulcers in animals
The cornea is the eye’s window to the world and its first line of defence. Ingeniously built but highly vulnerable, it requires swift and accurate treatment when injured. Researchers in Sweden are now working to improve treatment of corneal ulcers in our most cherished animal species. -
On the road to a better life for cats – where is today's osteoarthritis research heading?
Over the years, cats have gone from “anonymous” barn animals to beloved family members. Today, they are our most common pets and—like humans—cats are living longer than ever. Knowledge about age-related diseases is therefore increasingly important, not only for a long life, but a good one. -
