What are our goals?
- Attain optimal health outcomes for individuals, animals, and the environment.
- Facilitate cross-disciplinary conversations.
- Promote collaborative research across departments.
Why is it important to apply One Health approaches in research?
Federal research funding agencies are increasingly calling for more collaborations among animal, human, and environmental health experts to help address important challenges.
