This Annual Report is dedicated to her memory. DEAR FRIENDS, This report provides an introduction to the many vital projects underway at the Institute. I am particularly pleased to report on some of the accomplishments achieved by new members of our faculty. In 2005 Dr. John Parker was named a Burroughs Wellcome Investigator in the Pathogenesis of Infectious Disease, the fi rst veterinarian to garner this distinction. Dr. Alex Travis was awarded the Institute’s fi rst award from the United States Agency for International Development; Dr. Travis’s work links economic development in rural Zambia with wildlife conservation. In 2006 Dr. Susana Mendez joined the Institute faculty as Assistant Professor of Immunology; Dr. Mendez is expert in two parasitic diseases: leishmaniasis and hookworm infection, which affl ict both dogs and people in developing countries. In today’s global society, these and other Baker Institute scientists are addressing critical issues in global health.

Research advances The Institute’s biomedical engineering initiative is an exciting new venture. Since early in Baker Institute 2006, three junior faculty members of the College of Engineering’s new Department of Biomedical Engineering have been resident at the Baker Institute. This enables laboratories the Institute’s veterinary scientists to work side-by-side with engineers in a unique today are making interdisciplinary environment that holds promise for progress in many areas. a difference The Baker Institute continues to attract a highly talented cadre of graduate students and for tomorrow’s post-doctoral scientists. Thanks to the generosity of Advisory Council member Joanne generation of Bicknese, two Baker Institute post-graduate students were awarded the Bicknese Family Prize in recognition of their outstanding performance. companion animals. The Institute has long been a site for technological innovation, and this tradition continues. Over the past decade the Institute has played an important role in the Horse Genome Project; in 2006, this culminated in the complete DNA sequencing of the genome. In coming years, this important advance will lead to many applications in equine health.

I am pleased to share the good news that Dr. Michael Kotlikoff, chair of the Veterinary College’s Department of Biomedical Sciences, has been appointed to serve as the new Dean of Veterinary Medicine at Cornell. Dr. Kotlikoff, who succeeds Dean Donald F. Smith, will begin his term on July 1. We look forward to working with him.

Finally, with fondness, I must record the passing of Dr. Nancy Burton-Wurster. Her dedication to the Institute’s program in canine hip dysplasia and osteoarthritis constitutes a twenty-ﬁ ve year legacy that will long be remembered.

Thank you for your continuing support of our programs. Our work is made possible through your devotion to animals and science.

1 TWILIGHT

Twilight, a three-year-old Cornell-bred Thoroughbred, was selected as the DNA donor for the horse genome sequencing project in 2006. In recognition of this landmark achievement in equine research, Advisory Council member Albert Bostwick sponsored a race in Twilight’s honor at the Aiken, South Carolina Steeplechase event in the fall of 2006.

EQUINE IMMUNOLOGY, GENETICS AND REPRODUCTION

Equine researchers have a new tool in their toolbox: the complete sequence of the horse genome. Realized years earlier than expected, the horse sequence is critical to the development of lifesaving vaccines and therapeutic drugs for horses and will facilitate ground-breaking research—some of which will be applicable to other mammalian species as well. Many important equine diseases, such as chronic respiratory disease, a number of immune defi ciency conditions, and a variety of musculoskeletal disorders are known to have a signifi cant genetic component. Douglas F. Antczak, VMD, PhD The determination of the equine genome sequence culminates a decade of collaborative Dorothy Havemeyer McConville Professor of research by an international consortium of horse geneticists. The effort has been funded Equine Medicine by the Havemeyer Foundation, the Harry M. Zweig Memorial Fund for Equine Research, the Morris Animal Foundation, and the US Department of Agriculture. In 2006, with new Bettina K. Wagner Senior Research Associate support from the National Institutes of Health, the entire genome sequence was completed at MIT’s Broad Institute, a national center for high-throughput DNA sequencing. Amanda de Mestre Postdoctoral Associate The sequence was cracked with DNA from Twilight, a three-year-old Thoroughbred in Cornell’s stable whose sire and dam were handpicked based on their DNA. Twilight is Leela Noronha Post-DVM PhD Candidate the fourth generation in Dr. Doug Antczak’s twenty-fi ve-year-old breeding program and was selected after she was found to have a very narrow gene pool, effectively guaranteeing Rebecca L. Tallmadge PhD Candidate the highest degree of control in the sequencing process. Twilight’s sire and dam shared identical copies of genes that comprise the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC). Donald C. Miller The equine MHC contains many genes essential to the immune system, a focus of the Research Support Specialist Antczak lab. With this narrowed, homozygous gene pool, Twilight was an ideal candidate Christina Costa for the sequencing initiative. Research Technician “Working with Dr. Antczak has provided me with a unique opportunity to further Julie Hillegas Research Technician develop my skills as both a research scientist and an equine veterinarian,” said Dr. Amanda de Mestre, a postdoctoral associate in the lab. “An important feature of the Antczak lab is the palpable esprit de corps. All trainees, ranging from undergraduates to postdoctoral associates, comment on the supportive, stimulating, and inclusive learning environment present in the laboratory. Not only have I had the opportunity to develop my interests and knowledge in pregnancy immunology, but I have also played an active role in the veterinary care and management of a large equine research herd.”

3 Roundworms, or nematodes, are signiﬁ cant causes of diseases in animals, yet relatively little is known about how they sustain themselves within the animals that they infect. Dr. Judy Appleton’s research aims to elucidate and exploit the ways by which the host’s immune response interferes with parasitism by nematodes.

4 Detection of ∝Galactose (red) in histologic sections of adult female P. tenuis. This sugar is found in both the nematode and the host and likely helps the worm evade the host immune response. i = intestine; u = uterus; e = eggs.

INFECTIOUS DISEASES AND IMMUNOLOGY

The symbiotic relationship between roundworms and their host—whether that host is a pig, polar bear or myriad other animals—may eventually offer insights into chronic diseases that afﬂ ict humans, like arthritis and diabetes.

In Dr. Judith Appleton’s lab, she and her team study the immunological response to chronic infection caused by roundworms.

“It’s a fascinating case of accommodation,” said Dr. Appleton. “The Trichinella spiralis Judith A. Appleton, PhD parasite thrives in its host, despite the host’s efforts to attack it with an immune response.” Alfred H. Caspary Professor Because the parasite is so large—reaching up to one millimeter and thirty microns—it is of Immunology actually in the best interest of the animal that the immune response does not render the roundworm powerless. To destroy it would also mean injuring a signiﬁ cant portion of the Susan K. Bliss Research Associate host’s tissue. Thus, it appears that the animal and parasite tolerate each other through a closely regulated immune response. It is this adaptation that intrigues Dr. Appleton, Michael S. Duffy Research Associate who is conducting her research with funding from the National Institutes of Health. She and her team have focused their efforts on understanding how Interleukin 10, a protein Maria Valeria Fabre that inhibits the creation of pro-inﬂ ammatory cytokines, performs in normal mice. With Postdoctoral Associate this information, it may be possible to understand how the host and parasite survive Daniel P. Beiting one another. PhD Candidate Recently published research from the Appleton lab focused on Parelaphostrongylus Lisa P. Daley PhD Candidate tenuis, commonly referred to as the meningeal worm, which lives in the brains of white-tailed deer found in the northeast. In the deer population, the worm does not Seana M. Thrasher Post-DVM PhD Candidate cause sickness. However, infective larvae are introduced into the environment through the deer’s waste. These larvae develop in intermediate hosts—snails and slugs—that Lucille F. Gagliardo can transmit the disease to other animals, such as sheep, goats, llamas and alpacas. Research Technician While white-tailed deer seem resistant to the worm’s destructive powers, in other animal populations, the worm often wanders into the spinal cord and causes traumatic and unrepairable injury, sometimes reducing the animal to a state of paralysis.

This original research was funded by the Morris Animal Foundation. Dr. Appleton expects that future research will continue the lab’s commitment to ﬁ nding a vaccine capable of preventing the meningeal worm from causing disease in animals.

5 Once restricted to tropical and subtropical-type climates, visceral leishmaniasis is a progressive wasting disease in dogs and humans that is fatal if left untreated. Funded by the National Institutes of Health, Dr. Susana Mendez is developing vaccines for leishmaniasis as well as conducting genetic studies to identify genes that confer susceptibility or resistance to the disease.

PARASITE IMMUNOLOGY

Dr. Susana Mendez and her team are intent on preventing the spread of leishmaniasis, a potentially fatal disease among dogs and humans. Time is of the essence, as environmental factors like global warming and increased travel to endemic areas have given ﬂ ight to the sand ﬂ y vector—instrumental in the spread of the disease.

Once restricted to tropical and subtropical-type climates, visceral leishmaniasis is a progressive wasting disease in dogs and humans that is fatal if left untreated. Sand ﬂ ies Susana Mendez, DVM, PhD spread the disease, just as mosquitoes spread other diseases, infecting dogs and humans with a parasite that affects liver, spleen and kidneys and eventually results in organ failure. Assistant Professor of Immunology and Infected dogs are a risk for humans since they are considered the reservoir of the disease. Infectious Diseases Unfortunately, since visceral leishmaniasis is so new to North America and symptoms can take up to two years to appear, it is often undetected. Wenhui Wu Postdoctoral Associate Funded by the National Institutes of Health, Dr. Mendez is developing vaccines for Julie Jordan leishmaniasis as well as conducting genetic studies to identify genes that confer Research Technician susceptibility or resistance to the disease. In addition, she is working on several aspects of the host-parasite relationship, with a special emphasis on infection and transmission in endemic areas and in New York state.

“Growing up in Spain, a trip to the veterinarian with a sick dog with nonspeciﬁ c symptoms usually meant testing for leishmaniasis and often disappointment if the tests were positive,” said Dr. Mendez, explaining that, even if treated, most dogs invariably relapse. “Dogs are our friends, our families, and sometimes, our lifelines. The human and canine vaccines against cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis that my team is working on will add rewarding years to these relationships. The disease is gaining stronger holds— both geographically and in species. More than one thousand soldiers have returned from Iraq infected with cutaneous leishmaniasis. Finding effective treatments and successful preventive methods are no longer ‘nice because they will help humans and man’s best friend.’ They are necessary because North America is now feeling the effects of this potentially fatal disease.”

7 Dr. John Parker’s lab is improving our understanding of viruses, including the structure, function, and dynamics of reovirus factories, the mechanisms of reovirus- induced apoptosis, and several aspects of the pathogenesis and biology of feline caliciviruses.

LABORATORY FOR THE STUDY OF FELINE CALICIVIRUSES AND MAMMALIAN ORTHOREOVIRUSES

Dr. John Parker is studying potential anti-cancer agents. The weapons, reoviruses, speciﬁ cally target and kill cancer cells in mice, a species often used as the model for human health issues.

“We want to know how reoviruses attack mutated cells, so that we can better control the process,” said Dr. Parker. “We hypothesize that when one particular viral protein is John Parker, BVMS, PhD expressed, it kills the cells using apoptosis, a process that does not invoke pain or Assistant Professor of Virology stimulate the immune system.” However, when an infection is present, the viral protein changes so that apoptosis is Weiwei (David) Yan Postdoctoral Associate delayed until after viral replication.

Caroline M. Coffey “Viruses have evolved to a point where they can control when they kill the cell,” said PhD Candidate Dr. Parker. “This ensures the virus’s ability to replicate. Our work has the potential to Robert J. Ossiboff help explain how the virus regulates and kills the cell.” DVM/PhD Candidate Dr. Parker funds this work with support from the Burroughs Wellcome Fund Program Meagan L. Wisniewski in the Pathogenesis of Infectious Disease. The National Institutes for Health is funding PhD Candidate related work: exploring what portion of a cell’s biology the virus uses to replicate itself Lynne J. Anguish and assemble new viral particles. This knowledge could provide insight into options for Research Support Specialist either stopping the virus in its tracks or creating an agent designed to kill speciﬁ c cells. Stephen J. Campbell Research Support Specialist In other virus-related research, Dr. Parker studies feline caliciviruses. Certain strains of this virus can cause a nasty disease that kills up to 60% of infected cats. Although the regular Aziza I. Solomon strain of the virus causes no more than the snifﬂ es, newer strains have cropped up in the Research Technician last decade that cause facial swelling, ulcerations, and more seriously, disease of organs such as the liver and pancreas.

To understand the genesis of these new virus strains, Dr. Parker’s team has compared the growth properties and genetic differences between the less virulent common strains of feline calicivirus and the new more dangerous strains. Results of their research, which indicate that the more severe strains grow faster in tissue culture, have been accepted for publication in the Journal of General Virology.

Currently, the team is investigating how the virus bonds to its receptor at the atomic level.

9 Parvoviruses cause widespread and serious disease in humans and other animals. Dr. Colin Parrish and his team study the canine parvovirus and feline panleukopenia virus, which are 99.5% identical in DNA sequence, but differ in host range because of mutations.

ALBERT C. BOSTWICK LABORATORY OF MOLECULAR BIOLOGY

Dr. Colin Parrish and his team know their goal: to better understand how viruses function and how viruses stay in their particular hosts and do not (usually) infect other animals. The opportunities for researching this are endless: different viruses, different species. But the Parrish lab has set its sights on understanding the evolution of host range changes, and more speciﬁ cally, the evolution of the canine parvovirus.

Colin Parrish, PhD When a virus moves from one species to another, the host range has changed. Prior John M. Olin Professor to the 1970s, the parvovirus that we now know as canine parvovirus was found only of Virology among cats. Today, the parvovirus is found among dogs, a variety of relatives of dogs, and throughout the world, with different forms of the virus appearing in different Carole E. Harbison geographic regions. DVM/PhD Candidate

Karin Hoelzer Parvoviruses cause widespread and serious disease in humans and other animals. Post-DVM PhD Candidate The Parrish team studies the canine parvovirus and feline panleukopenia virus, which are 99.5% identical in DNA sequence, but differ in host range because of mutations. Christian Nelson PhD Candidate “The parvovirus is a very good model for exploring virus evolution,” said Dr. Parrish. Laura M. Palermo “Some new variations of the canine parvovirus have spread around the world in a matter PhD Candidate of a few months, which suggests that those mutations must be in the best interest of Karla M. Stucker the virus. It is able to spread and infect more effi ciently.” DVM/PhD Candidate Using the feline virus as the control, Dr. Parrish employs DNA sequence analysis (also Wendy S. Weichert known as DNA fi ngerprinting) to study the genome of the virus, looking for changes Research Support Specialist that correspond to changes in the properties of the virus. Erin Bennett Research Technician “These property changes will shed light on how a virus like avian infl uenza evolves to a point where it can infect another species,” said Dr. Parrish. “In addition, as viruses Gail M. Sullivan change, new vaccines become necessary. To develop them, though, we must know how Research Technician the virus has mutated.”

Current research indicates that the canine virus differs from the feline virus in its ability to bind to the outside of the cell. This binding and uptake allows the viral particle to make its way through the complex pathways to the nucleus, where it replicates.

“We’re looking at the infection process,” said Dr. Parrish. “How does the virus particle recognize the receptor and how does it penetrate the cell? We hope to ﬁ nd these and other answers using molecular and structural biology and genetics.”

Dr. Parrish’s work is funded by the National Institutes of Health.

11 Researchers in Dr. Gregory Acland’s lab have concentrated in two main areas: gene mapping, identifying mutations, developing diagnostic tests, and characterizing the organisms related to canine hereditary retinal degenerations; and developing and evaluating, in canine models, potential therapies for human retinal degenerative diseases.

INHERITED EYE DISEASE STUDIES UNIT

During 2005 and 2006, Dr. Gregory Acland closed in on two goals: developing tests that can effectively reduce or eliminate blindness in briards, and contributing to work towards a cure for at least one human disease.

His interest in genetics is at the root of work that produced the fi rst map of the canine genome. Using this map, scientists have a tool to fi nd genes and mutations that lead to a signifi cant number of hereditary eye diseases in dogs. Recently, the map was instrumental Gregory M. Acland, BVSc in identifying the genes that cause blindness in briards. With this information, genetic tests are used to identify affected and carrier dogs before they are bred, eliminating Professor of Medical Genetics blindness from future generations.

Anna V. Kukekova “The results of this work are world-conﬁ rmed,” said Dr. Acland. “We are rapidly heading Research Associate toward applications that will improve the quality of life for humans as well.” William A. Beltran Post-DVM PhD Candidate Researchers in Dr. Acland’s lab have concentrated in two main areas: gene mapping, identifying mutations, developing diagnostic tests, and characterizing the mechanisms Linda S. Hunter Post-DVM PhD Candidate related to canine hereditary retinal degenerations; and developing and evaluating, in canine models, potential therapies for human retinal degenerative diseases. Orly Goldstein Research Support Specialist In other work, Dr. Acland and Dr. Anna Kukekova are exploring whether behavior is a Jennifer L. Johnson choice or if it has been genetically programmed into an animal’s DNA. Using foxes, the Research Support Specialist Acland/Kukekova team is building on more than a half-century’s worth of research to determine if behavior is directly related to an animal’s genetic composition. Using silver Susan E. Pearce-Kelling Research Support Specialist foxes, researchers have determined that after only forty generations, these otherwise wild animals can be bred for domesticity. Pam E. Hammond Research Technician “We have an opportunity to unravel the mystery of complex behavior,” said Dr. Acland, who has partnered with scientists from the Institute of Cytology and Genetics at the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Department of Biology at the University of Utah. “Through our investigations into the relationship between genes and behavior, we are rapidly closing in on genes that do, in fact, inﬂ uence and change behavior.”

13 A common thread in Dr. Vicki Meyers-Wallen’s work is a search for gene mutations that cause inherited disorders. With this information, her team can develop practical tests to identify which animals carry the mutations. Test results will allow dog breeders to avoid mating animals that carry mutations and prevent production of offspring with these disorders.

LABORATORY FOR THE STUDY OF INHERITED CANINE REPRODUCTIVE DISEASES

Research conducted in 2005 and 2006 is leading Dr. Vicki Meyers-Wallen’s lab closer to identifying the gene causing hermaphrodites (Sry-negative XX sex reversal).

“Individuals affected with this inherited disorder do not have a Y chromosome, yet they develop testes and develop physically as males or true hermaphrodites. Our work has identiﬁ ed a small area on one chromosome that likely contains the gene mutation.” Vicki Meyers-Wallen, VMD, PhD Exploring sex reversal issues is one area of Dr. Meyers-Wallen’s work. A common thread is a search for gene mutations that cause inherited disorders. With this information, Associate Professor of Genetics and Reproduction the team can develop practical tests to identify which animals carry the mutations. Test results will allow dog breeders to avoid mating animals that carry mutations and prevent Shashikant Pujar production of offspring with these disorders. Postdoctoral Associate To that end, a second area of her team’s research is the genetic basis for the failure of Roxanne Van Wormer Research Support Specialist testis descent in males (cryptorchidism). With colleagues at Baylor College (Texas), the group is analyzing samples from canine families to search for the causative genes.

In addition, the lab is investigating a hypothesis that would explain why males sometimes develop female reproductive organs. The proposed theory suggests that a mutation inactivates a protein that normally prevents such development in males.

Many of the methods used in Dr. Meyers-Wallen’s lab are applicable to investigating other genetic disorders. For instance, a current partnership with Dr. Sharon Center, a Professor in Cornell’s Department of Clinical Sciences, is exploring the genetic basis for abnormal blood vessel development in the liver in some terrier breeds. Born with this condition, these terriers have a reduced ability to detoxify the blood, which is a serious health problem.

“We have had encouraging results in these studies,” said Dr. Meyers-Wallen. “The ultimate goal is to develop tests that will enable breeders to eliminate or reduce the frequency of this problem.”

Dr. Meyers-Wallen’s work is funded by the National Institutes of Health. Genetic studies have also been conducted in part through competitive application to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Mammalian Genotyping Service at the Marshﬁ eld Medical Research Foundation.

15 Dr. Alex Travis’s work on reproduction and conserving our environment has taken him to the Luangwa Valley in Zambia, where poachers have reduced the populations of native animals, sometimes to the point of local extinction. Leading a multidisciplinary team of ﬁ fteen Cornell scientists to test and optimize a major project run by the Wildlife Conservation Society, Dr. Travis’s efforts are helping conserve African biodiversity by focusing on eliminating hunger and poverty in ways directly linked to sustainable natural resource management strategies.

REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY

Dr. Alexander Travis is interested in conservation, and his work ranges from the study of the single cells involved in fertilization, to the preservation of populations and species. He and his team have a particular focus on the development and function of the male sperm cell, and have recently developed a patented test that allows researchers to look at a population of sperm and determine if it is responding to the stimuli for fertilization in a normal fashion.

Alexander J. Travis, VMD, PhD “Doctors can use this information to counsel infertile couples,” said Dr. Travis, who explained that the tools for understanding male fertility have not changed in decades. Assistant Professor of Reproductive Biology “Several options exist in assistive reproduction, but depending on the level of function of the sperm, one option may be more effective than another. Our assay can potentially Atsushi Asano help guide clinicians to choose the best approach.” For animals, the assay can be used Postdoctoral Associate in agriculture or to help breed endangered species. Fiona Hollinshead Postdoctoral Associate In related studies, Dr. Travis’s team also works on the stem cells that produce the cells that become sperm. In one technique, they use mice to grow sperm from other animals such Chinatsu Mukai Kazama as cats or ferrets. This approach can have enormous applications for the conservation of Postdoctoral Associate endangered species in captivity. Danielle Buttke DVM/PhD Candidate “Animals of high genetic value may die before reaching puberty,” Dr. Travis said. “These animals are not mature enough to produce sperm. Their stem cells, though, can Yeun-Hee (Yoni) Kim PhD Candidate be collected, and through several approaches, we can have them produce sperm, which could then be used to pass on genetic information that would otherwise be lost forever.” Vimal Selvaraj Post-DVM PhD Candidate The team’s next step is to determine if these harvested sperm will create healthy offspring. Jacque Nelson If so, consider the advantage not only for wildlife, but also for a young man who must Research Support Specialist undergo chemotherapy and expects to lose his fertility.

17 Hip dysplasia is prevalent in large breeds of dogs, like this Labrador Retriever, although the disease has been found in toy breeds as well. Symptoms of the disease may include a swaying and unsteady gait or a tendency to draw the hind legs forward, placing more weight on the forelimbs. When dogs with hip dysplasia run, you may notice a tendency for the hind legs to move in harmony.

HIP DYPSLASIA AND OSTEOARTHRITIS

Researchers in Dr. George Lust’s laboratory are on track to improve the understanding of hip dysplasia at the gene level and expect to uncover accurate techniques to diagnose and treat the disease with further investigation. Hip dysplasia is an abnormal formation of the hip joint that results in joint damage, inﬂ ammation, and pain. Dr. Lust’s research is focused on dogs, but his work has the potential to offer signiﬁ cant insights into similar diseases suffered by other mammals, including humans.

George Lust, PhD Over the course of the last two years, in collaboration with Dr. Rory Todhunter and Dr. Nancy Burton-Wurster, Dr. Lust’s efforts have focused on four areas with the Professor of Physiological Chemistry potential to provide a deeper understanding of hip dysplasia. The Albert C. Bostwick Researchers have conﬁ rmed three methods that can be used in genetic and pathogenetic Foundation Laboratory studies that accurately identify puppies that are not at risk for developing hip dysplasia. Nancy I. Burton-Wurster † The ﬁ rst two methods—the distraction index and the dorsolateral subluxation test— Senior Research Associate measure distances between key points in the hip region. The third method—similar to

Raluca Mateescu tests that pediatricians use—involves manipulation of the hip joint to check for a Postdoctoral Associate clicking sound.

Elizabeth E. Corey In addition, Dr. Lust and his team are looking for genetic markers and genes that can be Research Technician associated with either normal or abnormal hip joints. Virginia Scarpino Research Technician “We have made exciting progress in this area as we have identifi ed a strategic marker in a dog’s DNA,” said Dr. Lust. “By monitoring its behavior and specifi cally looking for the Alma J. Williams tendency to segregate, we can predict an abnormality. Currently, this work looks at just Research Technician one possible gene on one possible chromosome. Future work will focus on other genes and chromosomes.” † Deceased Unfortunately, little is known about the development of osteoarthritis, which is linked with hip dysplasia, as its effects are not typically felt until the disease has fi rmly established itself. Dr. Lust’s team has identifi ed fi ve genes that are involved within minutes of the development of the disease. This information may illustrate options for effective prevention techniques.

Finally, the Lust research team has developed a test that measures for the presence of the cartilage-ﬁ bronectin structural molecule in the blood. The molecule’s presence suggests that cartilage is degenerating, a sign of osteoarthritis.

Dr. Lust’s research is funded by the Morris Animal Foundation and Pﬁ zer Incorporated. He expects that future work will focus on substantiating these ﬁ ndings.

BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING INITIATIVE

Strokes can be life-altering. Unfortunately, few effective treatments or preventative strategies exist. Chris Schaffer and his research team are helping to relieve this deﬁ cit by developing animal models of small-scale strokes that allow the progression of stroke- causing diseases to be studied and provide a platform for the evaluation of therapeutics.

Collaborative research “Our goal is to produce small-scale strokes and monitor what happens to the blood fl ow between the Baker Institute and to neurons that are behind a clot,” said Dr. Schaffer, a faculty member from biomedical for Animal Health engineering who collaborates with the Baker Institute for Animal Health. “We have and the Department of uncovered some interesting data that are not intuitive. For instance, we have learned that Biomedical Engineering it is worse for a patient if a clot develops in a capillary. More redundancy exists in higher improves health care for levels of the vascular hierarchy and this enables the blood fl ow to continue.” animals and humans. To develop models of small-scale strokes and address fundamental questions, the team uses in vivo two-photon fl uorescence microscopy to image the network of blood vessels in the brain and quantify blood fl ow.

“Our work consistently pushes technology and requires new techniques,” said Dr. Schaffer. “With these advantages, we have the potential to affect human health.”

Likewise, Dr. Moonsoo Jin, also from biomedical engineering, is working with the Baker Institute to improve health care options. His research studies protein/protein interactions that are associated with diseases, and develops molecules for therapeutic and diagnostic applications.

One of the diagnostic applications is engineering proteins that—when attached to nanoparticles—can ﬁ nd tumors.

“Nanoparticles can be seen by the MRI, but they can’t ﬁ nd tumors,” said Dr. Jin. “Proteins can ﬁ nd abnormal cells, but cannot be seen by an MRI. Together, they have the potential to illustrate life-threatening issues far sooner than we can do today.”

The next step, according to Dr. Jin, is to attach therapeutic drugs to nanoparticles and direct them to infected cells.

“This method of targeted delivery could greatly improve chemotherapy treatments, for example.”

Dr. Schaffer’s research is funded by the Ellison Medical Foundation and through start-up funds from Cornell. This university-level seed funding also supports Dr. Jin’s research.

25 BUTLER FAMILY PAVILION DEDICATION

On Friday, September 29, 2006, the Butler Family Pavilion at the McConville Barn site was dedicated with many Butler family children, grandchildren, and friends in attendance.

Honoring the memory of Mollie and Karl Butler, the pavilion provides cover from summer sun and rain and serves as a site for lab meetings, classes, and demonstration lectures to students, Cornell alumni, and to horsemen and horsewomen who visit Cornell. Longtime Ithaca residents, the Butlers were friends of the Institute for most of the past twenty years, on both professional and personal levels.

They met as graduate students at Cornell and settled in Ithaca. Mollie’s GlanNant line of Welsh ponies became nationally known for their calm temperament, outstanding conformation, and performance. In addition, Baker Institute students worked with Mollie’s herd to produce the ﬁ rst successful embryo transfer in Welsh ponies.

The pavilion is the most recent in a series of Butler family gifts to the Baker Institute for Animal Health. Donations from the Butler family funded the Butler Hay Barn in the Kleberg Barn complex in 1992, and in 1993, the Institute dedicated the Butler Knoll with a patio on the McConville Barn site. In 1996 a bench was dedicated in the Cornell Plantations in memory of Mollie, and in 1999 an interpretive sign was designed and in- stalled at the border of the Plantations and the McConville Barn. The bench is the only seat in the Plantations that faces outward, away from the botanical collections and toward the horses grazing on the other side of the nearby fence. The sign contains a panel giving a short history of the McConville Barn and its current use.

MEMORIAL GIFT PROGRAM:

We Extend Our Gratitude to

Participating Veterinarians

Our success in discovering ways to improve animal health through research is dependent, in large measure, upon our association with practicing veterinarians who keep our faculty and staff aware of important problems in veterinary medicine. The Institute’s Memorial Gift Program is a valuable vehicle for facilitating communications between research environment and practice. New treatments and techniques—such as gene therapy, genetic testing, and counseling for inherited diseases—are advanced through support from this program.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the following veterinarians and animal care practices for their contributions to the Institute’s Memorial Gift Program in 2006 and 2005.
