Research Sub-theme Cheetah health, welfare and metabolism |
The cheetah is a unique and iconic species that has suffered severe population declines in the wild over the last several decades. In captivity, they are often afflicted by chronic lymphoplasmacytic gastritis, various renal diseases and ill-defined neurological disorders. Underlying causes for these health problems have to date not been clearly demonstrated. My research therefore uses a systems biology approach to better understand aspects of cheetah physiology, nutrition, health and welfare. |
