Welcome to Dr. Laurent L. Couëtil's Equine Respiratory Disease Research Program
Our research focuses on inflammatory respiratory disease in horses. Our interests include detection and treatment of airway inflammation to aid in the clinical management of disease in horses and to advance the use of the horse as a model of respiratory disease in humans.
