The One Health Breakfast Club

Each Breakfast Club begins with a short inspirational talk, followed by an informal opportunity to mingle, engage in interdisciplinary discussions, and explore potential collaborations. For those not based in Uppsala, the introductory talk will be available via Zoom.

Whether or not you identify as a One Health researcher, we’re confident you’ll find something of interest. Nearly all of SLU’s research areas are, in one way or another, connected to One Health.

Where? Green Innovation Park, Campus Ultuna. Locations for Campus Alnarp and Umeå will be confirmed a few days in advance, depending on the number of registrations. If you’re unable to attend in person, you can still join the opening talk via Zoom.

When? Our aim is to host the One Health Breakfast Club once a month, from 08:00 to 09:00.

Organiser: SLU Future One Health
