Dr. Furrow's research focuses on genetic and metabolic underpinnings of canine diseases, particularly calcium oxalate urolithiasis, hypertriglyceridemia, and immunodeficiencies. Her work bridges comparative medicine and molecular biology, utilizing genomic approaches to understand disease mechanisms in dogs with translational implications for human medicine.

Recent publications highlight her expertise in genetic variant analysis and microbiome studies. Collaborative work on CARD9 mutations in miniature Schnauzers and CARMIL2 immunodeficiency in Cavaliers demonstrates her leadership in identifying breed-specific genetic disorders. Her studies on urine microbiome dynamics and lipoprotein subtypes reflect innovative approaches to disease classification.

Dr. Furrow actively contributes to veterinary clinical research through affiliations with the University of Minnesota's Veterinary Clinical Sciences and Comparative and Molecular Biosciences programs. Her work often involves interdisciplinary collaborations with geneticists, microbiologists, and veterinary specialists.
