Our Goals.
Detect
Train and professionally deploy high-quality medical detection dogs that are carefully selected, ethically trained, and thoroughly assessed to accurately identify specific medical conditions.
Research
Conduct and fund research to better understand the potential of the dog’s sense of smell for medical applications and improve detection of disease by developing methods to detect disease earlier, more non-invasively, and more accessible
Accessibility
Create pathways to commercialisation of medical detection to enhance access to non-invasive diagnostic resources, including through influencing government policy and laws to ensure better access to medical detection dogs as a diagnostic option
