To update the address of Dr. Stephanie Valberg, She is at the Univeristy of
Minnesota College of Vet Med. She has done the most in depth biochemical
analysis of the causes of tying up to date and has some very interesting
data regarding the possible genetic nature of the syndrome in Thoroughbreds
and Quarter Horses. Her email address is valbe001@maroon.tc.umn.edu for
those with questions or wish to discuss a case. She is actively looking for
horses with both acute and chronic tying up syndromes to further study the
mechanisms involved. I believe that her contributions to diagnosis and
treatment have already made substantial impact on the way the tying up is
managed in athletic horses.
