Call One Health Training Grants 2025

 

Is there a method you would like to learn in another laboratory? Would you like to collect research data together with collaborators at another institution? In these cases, a One Health Training Grant (OHTG) from the One Health Platform could help you.
 

First junior meeting despite flooding

One Health is a broad term. To bring this concept to life, scientists need to be introduced to the concept at an early career stage in order to lay the foundations for the future of One Health.

Spring School 2024 – Failures in One Health Research

Gaining knowledge in science is a slow and tough process that is characterized by a multitude of errors, new beginnings and revisions. Misconceptions, according to which research moves purposefully from a given assumption towards a new knowledge that is valid for all time, often lead to misunderstandings between society, politics and science. However, dealing with failures can also be a challenge for young scientists, especially if the topic is taboo or expectations are particularly high.

Since the health of animals, humans and the environment does not stop at national borders, but is a global challenge, we would like to support the international networking of scientists in the One Health field.

One Health - from concept to realisation

One Health is the buzzword on everyone's lips. But how exactly can One Health be defined? What advantages does the approach offer and how can it be applied at international, national and local level in theory, research and practice? The first joint workshop organised by the One Health Platform (OHP) and the Academy for Public Health will explore these questions.

Mit der One Health Plattform (OHP) soll eine koordinierende, dynamische Struktur geschaffen werden, die die inter- und transdisziplinäre wissenschaftliche Entwicklung im One Health Bereich gemäß der One Health Definition des One Health High Level Expert Panels (OHHLEP) [1] unterstützt, nationale und internationale Förderinitiativen miteinander verknüpft, Impulse setzt und Raum zur Identifizierung von Forschungslücken und -bedarfen gibt.
The health of humans, animals and ecosystems (including the climate) are closely linked. For example, many current threats such as zoonoses (i.e. diseases that can be transmitted between humans and animals), antimicrobial resistance, changes in biodiversity or environmental pollution affect humans, animals and the surrounding environment.
The Scientific Advisory Board is the central scientific steering committee of the One Health Platform. It represents the One Health Platform externally and manages day-to-day business together with the administrative office. It performs overarching tasks and makes science-related decisions.
In order to give young scientists a voice in the scientific steering committee of the One Health Platform, the Scientific Advisory Board, two places are reserved exclusively for young scientists. The junior representatives are elected annually together with the other SAB members and have the same voting rights as the other elected members.
In this episode, Dr. Magdalena Meyer, PostDoc at the Institute of Evolutionary Ecology and Conservation Genomics at the University of Ulm, gives an insight into her exciting research on the ecology of diseases and the complex interactions between pathogens and their hosts.
