Zoobiquity springs from a simple but revelatory fact: Animals and humans get the same diseases, yet physicians and veterinarians rarely consult with one another. Zoobiquity explores how human and non-human animal commonalities can be used to diagnose, treat, and heal patients of all species. Drawing on the latest in medical and veterinary science-as well as evolutionary and molecular biology-Zoobiquity proposes an integrated, interdisciplinary approach to physical and behavioral health. Barbara Natterson-Horowitz is a cardiologist and professor at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). She is a New York Times bestselling author of the book Zoobiquity, coauthored with Kathryn Bowers. Natterson-Horowitz and Kathryn Bowers coined the term "zoobiquity" by combining zo (Greek for animal) and ubiquity (Latin for everywhere) to describe the relationship between animal and human health. Natterson-Horowitz has practiced cardiology at UCLA Medical Center for more than twenty years, served as Director of Imaging at the UCLA Cardiac Arrhythmia Center, and taught courses at UCLA. She is also a Professor of Medicine in the Division of Cardiology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, and a Professor in the UCLA Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. She is Co-Director of the Evolutionary Medicine Program at UCLA, and both a cardiovascular consultant and a member of the Medical Advisory Board for the Los Angeles Zoo. In 2005, her role as cardiovascular consultant to the Los Angeles Zoo required her consult on an emperor tamarin experiencing heart failure. During her examination of the tamarin, a veterinarian warned her to avoid capture myopathy, an unfamiliar term to Natterson-Horowitz. Upon researching the term, Natterson-Horowitz discovered its likeness to the human condition of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy and set out to discover more parallels between animal and human health. Natterson-Horowitz's research led her to co-author the 2012 New York Times Bestseller Zoobiquity, which advocates for a cross-species approach to healthcare, highlighting the many afflictions that plague both humans and animals. In 2011, Natterson-Horowitz founded the Zoobiquity Conference to bring together leaders from human and animal medicine for discussions about diseases afflicting both populations. The 6th annual Zoobiquity Conference is scheduled for April 2, 2016 in Philadelphia, PA. First Edition [stated]. Presumed first printing.
