CCAH Research Support
CCAH supports companion animal research in the areas of anesthesia, behavior, cancer, genetics, infectious diseases, medicine, nutrition, urology, and more. Our research support to the faculty at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine has led to hundreds of publications helping companion animals at home, at the veterinary clinic, and in animal shelters. Using the resources of the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine and partnering institutions, our goal is to continue to support research to fight disease and improve the quality of life for our animal friends.
