Subject: Re: Adrenal Tumor Study [Ferret-Health-list]


So, does anyone know of a source for funding for ferret
research?
We are looking for about $ 500. This study would not involve
harming any
ferrets in any way. We are simply looking for money to send
some biopsy
samples to a special lab in California for special staining
techniques.

Thanks for your time. and happy ferreting !!! :)

I don't know of any resources, but I was thinking if you could
recruit a ferret lover to set up a fund, and set up a place
to take donations for the research then you may get some of
the funds needed. I know there are so many people seeing the
adrenal tumors in their ferrets and so many questions
unanswered, there should be a good response to any effort made
in research- even if it is a specific adrenal tumor you are
investigating.
Once the details are ironed out, post on the FML- I certainly
would be interested, although don't get too excited, I am not
wealthy :(
