 About the Speaker 

Barbara Natterson-Horowitz, Professor of Medicine in the Division of Cardiology at UCLA Medical School, provides a unique perspective on how human well-being, including mental health, can be improved by insights into animal health.

 Why you should listen 

Barbara Natterson-Horowitz is a cardiologist whose patients include gorillas, lions, wallabies and humans. Her medical rounds sometimes take place at the Los Angeles Zoo, or might include veterinarians in a discussion of human health at the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, but always channel the perspective of Charles Darwin. 

A professor in UCLA’s Division of Cardiology and in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Natterson-Horowitz's medical specialty is cardiac imaging -- but her academic passion is the evolutionary connection between human and animal bodies and minds. 

In 2012, she co-authored the book Zoobiquity: The Astonishing Connection Between Human and Animal Health, advocating a “One Health” approach to medicine. She founded the Zoobiquity Conferences to bring veterinarians and physicians together for “species-spanning” debates and collaborations.

这个演讲让我想起了我们南医大一附院范志宁教授为海豚做手术的案例。范教授是江苏省人民医院消化内镜中心主任、博导，他曾两次成功使用消化内镜为南京海底世界的小海豚取出被误吞的异物，得到国内外专家的高度评价。有个小问题考考大家，您知道海豚有几个胃吗？

答案是四个噢。
