We Are All Connected: Saving Species and Preventing Pandemics

The Smithsonian presents

We Are All Connected: Saving Species and Preventing Pandemics

Join Smithsonian Affiliations and the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute's Global Health Program to explore our current global health crisis and the ways in which the health of humans, animals, and the environment are inextricably linked. Dr. Maureen Kamau is a Smithsonian veterinary research fellow with the Global Health Program, and is based at the Mpala Research Center in Laikipia, Kenya. Through her fellowship, she participates in clinical care of Kenya’s native wildlife and conducts various research projects in wildlife population health and conservation. Dr. Kamau will share her experiences following this unique career path, how her research in Kenya relates to current concerns around infectious disease and pandemics, and how her careful study of poop has been instrumental in working to save the Eastern Black Rhino.
