Do some quick research on the effects of sickle cell anemia, then briefly describe why Dr. Cardozo's studies were and continue to be so important to people of African descent.
William Warrick Cardozo (1905-1962)
William was a physician and pediatrician. Cardozo practiced medicine in Washington, D. C. and joined the staff of Howard University College of Medicine and Freedmen's Hospital, where he became clinical associate professor of pediatrics. He also served for 24 years as school medical inspector for the D. C. Board of Health.
He was one of the first people to investigate sickle cell anemia. His findings in sickle cell concluded that the disease was largely familial and inherited. He also discovered that the disease was disproportionately impacting individuals of African descent.
In addition to his work on sickle cell anemia, Cardozo studied gastrointestinal disorders in children and published works on Hodgkin's disease, and on early growth and development of black children.

Recent research by marine biologists suggests that bottlenose dolphins have names for themselves. scientists played sounds they had identified as the names of particular dolphins, putting them through a synthesizer so that they did not sound like the voices of particular dolphins. the researchers found that dolphins would respond to the names of other dolphins that they were related to or associated with, but they ignored the names of strangers. this discovery suggests a much greater degree of self-awareness in aquatic mammals than was previously suspected. if this research holds up, what does it suggest about dolphins?
