Short description

Founded jointly by the Vetsuisse Faculty, the Faculty of Medicine and the Faculty of Science, the One Health Institute (OHI) has been established as a new institute at the University of Zurich in May 2023. We understand One Health as a transdisciplinary, holistic view on human and animal health in the context of entire ecosystems encompassing a broad range of disciplines. It is the vision of the OHI to be the incubator and active driver for a new open science culture at UZH and to become a place where scientists across disciplines create new conceptual, theoretical, methodological, and translational innovations in a systems-oriented approach while interacting with other stakeholders (politics, citizens, media, etc.).
