This was recently on the Arizona PBS stations.  It is a bit long, but a very good overview of the research and what they hope to accomplish.  I know there are folks here who have donated DNA.  It is a very personal choice, but something those fighting cancer should consider.

wow!  Thanks SO much….I had been bemoaning the fact that if we weren't in an organized "study" nothing from Magic or done to Magic was going anywhere by Tripawds.

I just called my main vet and told him I am dropping off a piece of paper with a link on it and I would like him to take the 10 minutes to watch this and I want to participate.

 

Thanks Shanna

Thanks Shanna. We've mentioned the Van Andel Institute study before, it's great to see that the word is getting out.

For those who haven't read about them, see:

Oops … this link seems to take me right back to this same forum page.
