    One Health is the Official Journal of the One Health Foundation.

    Its mission is to provide a platform for rapid communication of high quality scientific knowledge on inter- and intra-species pathogen transmission, bringing together leading experts in virology, pathology, immunology, bacteriology, parasitology, veterinary sciences, food safety, mathematical modelling, epidemiology, public health research and emergency preparedness.

    Submissions to the following categories are welcome:

    • Virology
    • Bacteriology
    • Parasitology
    • Modelling
    • Discovery
    • Ecosystem Health
    • Public Health

  • Applications for our first set of Short Term Scientific Missions is now open

    Applications are now open for Missions Occurring between 1 March 2015 and 31 January 2016

    Short Term Scientific Missions (STSM) are aimed at supporting individual mobility and at strengthening the existing networks and fostering collaborations by allowing scientists to visit an institution in another participating COST country or an approved NNC or IPC institution.

    This first STSM call aims to attract applications from researchers wishing to contribute to the tasks of Working Group 1 (WG1), i.e. to inform and engage in the development of a handbook/protocol for evaluation of One Health initiatives.

    STSMs in NEOH should specifically contribute to the scientific objectives of the COST Action, whilst at the same time allowing those partaking in the missions to learn new techniques, gain access to specific data, instruments and / or methods not available in their own institutions / organisations, in particular of relevance for developing and performing evaluations of One Health activities.

    Highest priority should be given to encouragement of early-stage career investigators’ (ECIs) participation in the COST Action activities.
