The symposium will kick-off with an evening reception on Thursday February 12 at the Reid Park Zoo. The reception will feature a keynote presentation by Dr. Mark Smolinski, the Jeff Skoll Endowed Chair & Executive Director of Ending Pandemics Academy. Refreshments and hors d'oeuvres will be provided.
This year’s full program on Friday February 13 at the UA Health Sciences Innovations Building, will spotlight innovative, solutions-oriented approaches to operationalizing One Health—from data-driven decision making and community-engaged strategies to cutting-edge tools and surveillance programs that bridge human, animal, and environmental health. Together, we will explore forward-thinking models that accelerate real-world impact, strengthen cross-sector resilience, and advance transformative One Health practice across the Southwest. Light breakfast, lunch, and refreshments will be served. A full agenda is forthcoming.
The symposium is hosted collaboratively by TGen North, and the University of Arizona’s One Health Research Initiative and the Ending Pandemics Academy, both within the Mel & Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health.
