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?

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.

Young Scientist Representation

In order to give young scientists a voice in the scientific steering committee of the One Health Platform, the Scientific Advisory Board, two places are reserved exclusively for young scientists. The junior representatives are elected annually together with the other SAB members and have the same voting rights as the other elected members.
