The center of the Colorado State University (CSU) veterinary school’s equine reproductive universe is its 22,000-square-foot Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology Laboratory and a smaller satellite, the Equine Reproduction Laboratory. In these facilities, faculty members, graduate students, post-doctorate fellows, and visiting scientists from around the world work on a daily basis to unveil the mysteries and solve the problems of equine reproduction. A particular focus is on horses whose organs have been compromised by age and illness.

The veterinary school is also known for its research and accomplishments in the field of orthopedics, and a new research center devoted to that field of study has been constructed.

Reproduction Accomplishments

Colorado State University, of course, is not the only research center heavily involved in equine reproduction. There are a number of others around the country where studies are ongoing to better understand the reproductive systems of both stallions and mares. However, the successes achieved at CSU allow it to lay claim to being one of the leaders in the field
