What AVA Project is
An AI that reads published research and looks for how it connects.
More is published on feline leukemia than anyone can read together. AVA Project reads it, extracts what each study claims, anchors every claim to the exact sentence behind it and cross-references it with the rest: where they agree, where they contradict each other, and what remains unanswered. It does not replace research; it makes searching inside it possible.
Connects
From each study it extracts specific claims, each anchored to its verbatim quotation, and relates them to the rest of the corpus.
Publishes
Everything appears here with its source, its quotation and its evidence level. Unanswered questions are published as plainly as findings.
Project data
The state of the research, without promises or shortcuts.
Figures come from the published knowledge base and are updated progressively.

Traceable research
Every claim should lead to its evidence.
We publish what we know, where it comes from and what uncertainty remains. A hypothesis is never presented as a treatment.
Scientific sources
Papers identified, classified and connected to their claims.
Verifiable quotations
Evidence includes the exact passage and its location in the source.
Visible uncertainty
Limitations, contradictions and negative findings are part of the knowledge.
Our philosophy
We are not here to promise cures. We are here to make the search for them better.
Read the methodology →Open
Knowledge should circulate and remain reusable.
Traceable
Every conclusion preserves the path back to its source.
Honest
Hope is built on evidence, not assertions.
Collaborative
Complex diseases require multiple disciplines.

A note is published when reading several papers together says something none of them says alone. That has not happened yet. In the meantime, every analysed paper has a page of its own.

The origin
It started with Ava.
Ava was a young cat whose illness raised questions that did not disappear when she did.
The AVA Project exists to keep asking them and share every answer openly.
Who was Ava?
Ava was a young cat: curious, affectionate in her own way, and deeply loved.
She was barely a year and a half old. A small life in time, but an enormous one for those who shared a home with her.
Ava's story
Over a few weeks she began to grow quieter, to eat less, and to breathe in a way that did not seem right.
What began as a worry ended far too soon. In a matter of days, everything changed.
Her diagnosis
Ava was diagnosed with feline leukemia (FeLV), severe anaemia, and a mass in her chest consistent with a lymphoma.
Her illness was already far advanced. There was barely time to understand what was happening before we had to say goodbye to her.
The questions she left behind
Why a cat so young? Could it have been caught earlier? What do we really know about FeLV? What happens when anaemia, immunosuppression or lymphoma appear?
Ava is gone, but those questions stayed.
Why the project carries her name
Because it started with her.
AVA Project was born from the need to turn those questions into searching, into knowledge and into collaboration: to investigate, gather what is known, and share it openly so that it can serve others.
In memory of Ava
Ava could not benefit from the answers we are looking for now.
That is why this project carries her name. So that her story does not end with her absence, and to try to make sure that one day other cats have more time, more options and better answers.
For Ava. And for all those who come after her.
