STILLWATER— The OSU Center for Veterinary Health Sciences reports that Dr. Lara Maxwell, Assistant Professor of Physiological Sciences, has received a grant from Grayson Jockey Club to study the efficacy of an antiviral drug to fight Equine Herpes Virus Type I (EHV-1).
“We will test the drug to see whether it protects horses from EHV-1,” says Dr. Maxwell. “This is a two year study, but we hope to have preliminary results by the 2008 meeting of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine. If the drug is effective, this project will have far reaching consequences for horse owners and the horse industry.”For more information on the Veterinary Center, visit http://www.cvhs.okstate.edu .read more
