Travis Laver holds the position of Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Small Animal Medicine & Surgery at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital. His academic background includes a VMD from the University of Pennsylvania (2012), a PhD in Cell Biology from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (2008), and board certification as a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (Oncology). He specializes in comparative oncology, molecular oncology, and mechanistic studies involving NF-κB signaling pathways and proteasome inhibition.
Research interests focus on translational oncology, bridging canine cancer models with human therapeutic approaches. Key areas include tumor staging methodologies, molecular mechanisms of cancer resistance, and diagnostic innovations in veterinary oncology. His surgical training includes roles at Colorado State University’s Flint Animal Cancer Center and the Veterinary Specialty Hospital of the Carolinas.
Publications highlight work on canine pulmonary carcinomas, melanoma prognostic factors, and drug efficacy studies for metastatic cancers. His molecular studies explore NF-κB pathway regulation in gliomas and cytokine signaling modulation. No formal awards are listed, though his contributions to veterinary oncology education and clinical trials are central to his academic profile.
