Animal welfare is very linked to human welfare. Not just the comradeship and fun that our pets bring to us, but also the opposite: sometimes abusers of animals also are abusers of other people. This presentation will explore the link between animal cruelty and domestic abuse and psychopathic human behavior. As well, it will describe the many challenges faced in the veterinary CSI world. Content of this program may not be suitable for all audiences, participant discretion is advised.
“I will make the link between animal cruelty and domestic abuse and psychopathic human behavior. I will also emphasize various challenges faced in the veterinary CSI world,” says Wenzlow.
Dr. Nanny Wenzlow is a board-certified anatomic pathologist veterinarian with a DVM degree from Belgium and residency training from Switzerland and the UK. After a few months of private diagnostic pathology service in the UK, Dr. Wenzlow joined the University of Florida initially as a clinical instructor for anatomic pathology, then pursued a Ph.D. program in molecular forensics pathology.
