Susanna is SLU's new professor in One Health and antimicrobial resistance
I want to strengthen SLU’s AMR work within the One Health concept, connect research groups to address this complex challenge, and increase the visibility of SLU’s One Health research both nationally and globally.
SLU contributes to the fight against antibiotic resistance
Antibiotic resistance is a growing threat to both humans and animals. SLU’s research helps curb the spread of resistant bacteria – learn more about our research through lectures, interviews with researchers, and popular science features.
Sectors must work together to combat antibiotic resistance
Antibiotic resistance is a true One Health issue because bacteria are rarely limited to one animal species or location. This means that resistance that develops in livestock can spread to humans ‒ for example, through direct contact, the environment, or animal-source foods.

Heavy machinery jeopardises the promises of conservation agriculture
Conservation agriculture is a system where the aim is to disturb the soil as little as possible. It involves sowing directly into the residues from the previous crop without tillage. Now researchers are warning that the benefits that are sought may be jeopardized by the use of heavy machinery. -
Royal visit as The Award for Outstanding Research in Veterinary Medicine was presented at SLU
Under solemn and celebratory circumstances, the newly established Award for Outstanding Research in Veterinary Medicine was presented on 26 November 2025. The award highlights Nordic research that has made a significant contribution to improving animal health and welfare. -
Chantal is making crop production more sustainable in Rwanda
“Sweden is opening my eyes from different angles,” says Chantal Uwituze, a PhD student from the University of Rwanda currently visiting SLU. Her research focuses on how Rwanda’s crop intensification program can become more sustainable – both for people and the planet. -
Securing food in the cities of the future
New risks, new legislation and new forms of collaboration raise the question: how can municipalities, regions and food system actors act to make Sweden more resilient in times of crisis?

SLU's Future Platforms
Interdisciplinarity at SLU
One of the most important goals for the Future Platforms is to develop interdisciplinary working methods at SLU by initiating and enabling collaboration across scientific disciplinary boundaries.
The One Health Breakfast Club
Take the opportunity to engage in transdisciplinary discussions and spark new collaborations with fellow researchers. We start with a short inspirational talk, followed by a tasty breakfast together. See the dates for upcoming events!
