U of G Experts Discuss Complex One Health Issues In Online Webinar Series

The complex health issues in our world today remind us that humans, animals and the environment are connected in more ways than we ever imagined.

Many of these challenges - climate change, food security, emerging diseases, antimicrobial resistance – can’t be solved by focusing on only one area and using only one perspective.

University of Guelph researchers are using a One Health approach – a collaborative effort of multiple disciplines to tackle these pressing health issues and look for solutions.

Learn more from One Health experts during the One Health Institute Winter Webinar series. The virtual series is free and open to all. Register below for each event you would like to attend.
