Why is it so hard to treat infectious arthritis in horses?

Arthritis can severely affect quality of life and performance for horses - especially when your horse is a highly trained professional athlete competing in equestrian sports like dressage, show jumping, eventing, western performance, racing, or polo. In this surprising talk, Dr. Lauren Schnabel takes you behind-the-scenes to share her research on why horses get arthritis, how it differs from what we see in people, why it’s so hard to cure, and what we can do differently.

Ty so much for this and what you do. So much heart felt gratitude for the time and research you all put in. I been researching so much on our horse. He 3 years old and needs surgery for arthritis in his coffin joint. Fusion maybe his best bet, idk, I’m not a vet. But I need to do what I need to give him a better life without so much discomfort.

Fascinating! I wonder if you have been successful in developing synthetic bioply?
