The Thoroughbred Education and Research Foundation (TERF) is pleased to award $14,000 to the Foundation for the Horse, the charitable arm of the American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP), to be used for research titled: “direct and indirect effects of platelet rich plasma on neutrophil stimulation.”

These principles have guided the AAEP for more than six decades in the activities and services it provides.

In alignment with their mission to support and promote equine education through inclusion and engagement, TERF continues to offer their financial assistance in 2021.
