Reseña del libro "The Value of Zoos in Clinical Conservation Medicine: Submitted to the Professional Science Master's Degree Program, Colorado State University, In part (en Inglés)"

Zoos, aquariums, and wildlife preserves are in a unique position to participate in clinical research and therefore contribute to dramatic conservation solutions. Recent transformations in biomedical capabilities offer scientists effective solutions to conservation problems. Conservation problems, specifically within the field of reproduction, may include infertility, genetic diversity, and assisted reproductive challenges. Biomedical solutions could be implemented to preserve species and thus prevent extinction. Clinical research translates fundamental research conducted in laboratories into cutting-edge treatments and information, which can benefit patients; and in the case of zoos, entire captive populations. Conservation medicine is a branch of medicine which studies the health relationships between humans, animals, and environmental conditions. Typically, these health relationships investigate infectious diseases, impacts of environmental toxins, or even the role of a sentinel species in maintaining ecosystem health. Reproductive health events are especially important in enhancing sentinel species populations, and their role in maintaining ecological integrity. Conservation medicine aims to improve management strategies and public policies, which allow for improvement in biological diversity and ecosystem preservation; particularly among ecosystems essential for human and animal health. Zoological institutions can easily participate in clinical research through studying the efficacy of assisted reproductive technologies in captive-breeding populations. With both present and future applications to conservation medicine, this research demonstrates how zoos can enhance conservation in the wild with clinical research.
