One health, one medicine: sharing challenges for combating zoonoses
Dates: 24 to 25 June, 2013
Location: Technical University of Denmark, Lyngby, Denmark
Description: MedVetNet 2013 is for human and animal health researchers working in the field of food-borne zoonoses using the One Health – One Medicine approach. Much of the work done through this approach has been cross-disciplinary - including a variety of sectors - and its implications reach beyond the study & removal of zoonoses.
The meeting aims to present the broad range of disciplines relevant to the One Health approach, as well as keynotes dedicated to combining these disciplines to faciliate economic development in the zoonotically plagued regions.
The meeting offers three key-note speakers addressing the One Health approach for development, epidemiology, and economics. Several other presenters will delve into the details of 4 main disciplines within zoonoses; for more information, please see the tentative programme. Note that all participants will have the opportunity to meet "one-on-one" with any of the presenters, to discuss data & methods, to brainstorm ideas, and to foster collaborations on zoonoses.
