You and your pet won't be seeing the same heart specialist any time soon, but your doctor and Coco's vet might learn a lot if they talked to each other. Tomorrow morning at 9 on the Sound of Ideas, we welcome the co-author of "Zoobiquity," a California cardiologist who says medical doctors can learn a lot from the diseases and maladies experienced by animals. Jaguars get breast cancer. Penguins can suffer from melanoma. What we can learn could help us, and them. Join host Mike McIntyre.

Barbara Natterson-Horowitz, M.D.; author, Zoobiquity
James W. Kazura, M.D. Case Western Reserve University
David Koncal DVM, Northfield; president, Ohio Veterinary Medical Association
Timothy Beal, Professor of Religion, Case Western Reserve University
