Protecting Global Health

Aggie innovation often rests on creative, interdisciplinary connections because we know the great challenges of our time demand new ways of thinking about solutions. The One Health model demonstrates that animals, humans and the environment are deeply interconnected. Working across the United States and around the world, the institute leverages our strengths in veterinary medicine, human health and biological sciences to monitor emerging threats and prepare solutions.

Whether that means leading efforts to monitor emerging viruses like Ebola through the PREDICT program or ongoing efforts to protect marine mammals from avian flu, the One Health model still informs national and international policy for predicting and preventing pandemics.
