Episode 2 - Pesticides, ecosystems and health

In this episode of the One Health Podcast, Dr. Dana Thal talks to Prof. Dr. Matthias Liess, Head of the Department of Systems Ecotoxicology at the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research. Among other things, they discuss the complex interrelationships in (aquatic) ecosystems. What effects can pesticides have in bodies of water and how can this affect human health?

Episode 1 – the One Health Platform

In the first episode of the One Health Podcast, Dr. Dana Thal talks to Prof. Dr. Fabian Leendertz, founding director of the Helmholtz Institute for One Health and one of the three site managers of the One Health Platform, about the One Health approach in general. What does the approach involve? What opportunities and challenges does it offer for research? What contribution can One Health make to disease prevention?

Episode 3 - Disease ecology and young scientists

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.

Grants

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.
