HEALTH

“Challenge One Health” is a comprehensive, interactive, digital event, which is dedicated to one of the most important topics of our time: One Health – rethinking human, animal and environmental health. Together with you, we want to play a pioneering role in the development of this emerging field and actively shape the paradigm shift. Under the title Challenge One Health, we are therefore organizing a series of events in spring 2021 to stimulate cross-sectoral cooperation between human medicine, veterinary medicine and the environmental sciences.
