Ep. 1 | In Vivo with Dr. Kerry Bowman on Bioethics

Today we’re sitting down with Dr. Kerry Bowman, a prominent Canadian bioethicist and conservationist. He’s currently a professor at the University of Toronto's Dalla Lana School of Public Health and once served as a clinical ethicist at Mt. Sinai hospital and Sunnybrook health Sciences centre. Dr. Bowman is the president and founder of The Canadian Ape Alliance, a member of the Board of Directors of The Jane Goodall Institute and works with the UNEP. Throughout his career, Dr. Kerry Bowman has been deeply involved in addressing complex ethical issues arising from advances in biotechnology, genomics, and healthcare. He is known for his insightful contributions to the ethical debates surrounding topics such as genetic testing, assisted reproductive technologies, and organ transplantation. And in fact, you may have seen him as a contributor on these topics on various international news stations. Additionally, his expertise extends to exploring ethical concerns related to global health and environmental health. He works in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo as a conservationist working to help protect the great apes of Africa. He frequently consults internationally on conservation issues in various parts of Africa, as well as India, Indonesia, Brazil and Iran. Dr. Bowman has consulted for the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta on research exploring the link between the hunting of great apes and the transmission of retroviruses such as HIV. More recently, Dr. Bowman has been spending time in the western Amazon where he studies uncontacted tribes and seeks to expand our knowledge on the interplay between biodiversity and global health.
