Experience

  1. Psychiatric Consultant to the Bonobo Species Preservation Society

    Milwaukee County Zoo

    Jan 1998 — Present

    Professor Prosen’s interest in empathy prepared him for his work with primates, in particular bonobos, who are thought to be the most empathic of all primates. Recently, the rehabilitation of a very disturbed young bonobo, named Brian, by Harry and his colleagues generated substantial publicity, including a story in \'The Atlantic\'(see below). Professor Prosen has also consulted on psychologically distressed animals from many other species.
