1st Debrecen Online Conference on Infectious Diseases in a One Health context (DOCIDOH)

1st Debrecen Online Conference on Infectious Diseases in a One Health context

It is now widely acknowledged that infectious diseases need to be studied, monitored and contained using the One Health approach. Human and veterinary pathogens can spread among multiple hosts and the environment creating complicated and frequently poorly understood transmission networks or triggering evolutionary events leading to emergence or reemergence of novel or neglected infectious diseases. These infections include food-, water- and vector-borne diseases, as well as the hidden epidemic of antimicrobial resistance, all representing major healthcare, economic and societal burden demanding attention. The recent and still ongoing pandemic drew attention to the importance of preparedness, which yet again need the close and intensive cooperation of physicians, veterinarians, environmentalists, epidemiologists, molecular biologists, ecologists and various other experts in order to learn the key factors in disease dynamics and to plan countermeasures.

To promote discussion and knowledge exchange, the One Health Institute of the Faculty of Health Sciences, the Faculty of Agricultural and Food Sciences and Environmental Management and the Department of Metagenomics at the University of Debrecen and the Veterinary Medical Research Institute and the Centre for Ecological Research of the Hungarian Research Network announces the first Debrecen Online Conference on Infectious Diseases in a One Health context (DOCIDOH) taking place 27-28 March 2024.

The conference aims at attracting researchers in the topics

  • antimicrobial resistance in a One Health perspective
  • alternatives to antimicrobials in human and veterinary medicine
  • genomic epidemiology of pathogens across sectors
  • emerging diseases and vectors
  • ecology of infections, environmental DNA and environmental health
  • bioinformatic tools for One Health research
