One Health is the approach underpinning the research done at the Edinburgh Medical School. The modern challenges that face not only the UK but the world in terms of the rise of chronic disease, the shifts in populations and the challenges presented by a population which is living much longer are common and the mechanisms underpinning them are common. The aim of the School is to bring the right individuals together to catalyse and create the opportunities to really develop exciting and cutting edge clinical and non-clinical research that makes a difference to people’s lives.
