Dr. Fatima Al Muhairi: Inside the Dromedary — Science, Heritage, and the UAE’s Cultural Symbol

In this episode, Dr. Fatima Al Muhairi, veterinarian and creator of the Anatomical Atlas of the Dromedary Camel, explains what inspired her to document one of the region’s most culturally and scientifically significant animals. She discusses the scientific and logistical challenges of producing such a detailed reference, the camel’s surprising anatomical adaptations, and how her work serves both modern veterinary practice and the preservation of UAE heritage. Dr. Fatima also shares how she makes complex anatomy accessible to non-scientific readers, touches on topics like welfare and disease management, and reveals what species might be next in her research journey — along with the book that shaped her path.
