SUMMARY:International Workshop on One Health Research: Improving Food Security and Resilience
DESCRIPTION:International Workshop on One Health Research: Improving Food Security and Resilience\nApril 15– 17\, 2026\nTremont House\n2300 Ship Mechanic Row St\, Galveston\, TX 77550 \nComplex public health problems such as emerging infectious diseases\, occupational health risks faced by agriculture workers\, and ongoing concerns with food safety require multidisciplinary and inter-institutional approaches to protect the security\, resiliency\, and sustainability of the global food supply. \nOur International Symposium and Workshop Planning Committee of diverse experts is designing an exciting program to engage leaders in agricultural industries\, public health\, veterinary health\, food safety\, and environmental health institutions. The Symposium and Workshop will be unique in that food productions experts will be centrally featured with the goal of identifying common ground from which new interdisciplinary research partnerships might arise and lead to better food resilience. We will feature lectures from the beef\, dairy\, egg & poultry\, pork\, aquaculture\, fresh produce\, and processed food industries. Research topics include emerging infectious diseases (viral\, bacterial\, and other)\, and the environmental\, social\, and public communication factors that impact Food Security. We will particularly highlight successful One Health mitigation approaches to Food Security problems. We will also feature abstract and poster competitions with monetary awards for junior investigators. We will again seek to publish abstracts and select research presentations (full articles) in Elsevier’s One Health Journal in special online issues. \nhttps://www.utmb.edu/one-health/news-events/OH-symposium/welcome \nRegistration
