Links To Research

Below are some links to current scientific research on humans and animals. For years, unfortunately, dogs were used in studies for drugs and diseases in humans. Their bodies react much like ours, as do mice and most mammals. Now hopefully some human research can help them. We just started building the list, trying to go back to some of our work and also use pieces that are summaries or not overly technical.
