ONE HEALTH and the Metabolism-Disease-Environment Triangle: When Biomedicine meets Innovation, Science Outreach and Social Sciences
- Date/Localization: May 12-16, 2025 at CNC (Auditorium 2nd floor, FMUC, POLO I)
- Program: Available here.

Aims:
The aim of this course is to offer a crosstalk of different views, from life and health sciences, from cell and molecular biology, nutrition, and endocrinology, to humanities, legal and social sciences, to contribute for a holistic view of what determines our ONE HEALTH.
How does cell metabolism react to lifestyle cues and to the environment that surrounds us?
How do diet and physical activity modulate cell metabolism, and especially energy metabolism?
How does our exposome remodel our metabolism and how does that contribute to health and disease?
How can the metabolism and biomedical research contribute to measure / quantify / predict the influences of environmental exposure on human health and disease?
These questions and others will be answered during this course.
