Topics considered will include those covering the impact of One Health issues (animal-human-ecosystem interaction, zoonoses, food safety, and Veterinary Public Health), especially those related to Health Equity. The program will consist of two or three 90 minute sessions of four 15 to 20 minute presentations along with an additional poster session addressing the following suggested topics:

• Evidence-based practice utilizing the One Health approach
• Health disparities across Humans, Animals, and the Environment
• Connecting the human-animal bond and health benefits across the economy
• Emerging infectious diseases and the One Health perspective
• Occupational risks for zoonotic disease exposures (including those associated with pathogens developing antimicrobial resistance)
• One Health: Addressing threats, impacts, and opportunities at the human-animal-ecosystem interface as a result of human health equity
• One Health epidemiology: How can technological advancements help surveillance, diagnosis, reporting, and response to emerging infectious diseases?
