The Answer to Cancer May Be Walking Beside Us (documentary trailer)

Colorado State University

Published on Aug 16, 2016

Humans and dogs have been together for millennia, forming an inseparable bond. We also, together, have a common enemy in cancer. One in three people, one in four dogs develop cancer in their lifetimes. As we seek to battle this fierce enemy, who better to turn to than our best friend. Together, we’re in the fight of our lives, and together, we may prevail over a deadly foe.

The Answer to Cancer May Be Walking Beside Us documentary from Colorado State University airs on Rocky Mountain PBS Sept. 29, 2016.

Center of Excellence for Emerging and Zoonotic Animal Diseases (CEEZAD)

SEE: http://ceezad.org/ and http://ceezad.org/resources/links/

The Center of Excellence for Emerging and Zoonotic Animal Diseases (CEEZAD) at Kansas State University was established in 2010 to help protect the nation’s agricultural and public health sectors against high-consequence foreign animal, emerging and zoonotic disease threats.  CEEZAD has four principal missions:

• Development of novel, safe, efficacious and DIVA-compatible vaccines for prevention and control of high-impact emerging and zoonotic diseases that can be manufactured in the U.S.

• Development and expansion of technologies and platforms for laboratory and point-of-need pathogen detection.

• Development of models to predict high-consequence disease behavior in the U.S. to aid prevention or outbreak control.

• Development of education and training programs for students, veterinarians, first responders and researchers in high-impact animal diseases and animal emergencies.

WHO releases list of ‘priority pathogens’ in urgent need of new antibiotics

February 27, 2017

“Today, WHO released its first-ever list of antibiotic-resistant “priority pathogens” that pose the greatest threat to human health. The list is intended to promote research and development of new antibiotic treatments.”

  “…IDSA [[Infectious Diseases Society of America] also praised WHO on stating that there must be more appropriate use of antibiotics in humans and animals, reflecting a One Health approach.

“We look forward to continued One Health efforts with our U.S. and international partners, including WHO, on antimicrobial stewardship, infection prevention, improved surveillance, diagnostics & vaccines R&D, and investment in the infectious diseases workforce," the statement said. …”

  Abstract

  “One Health is an emerging concept that stresses the linkages between human, animal, and environmental health, as well as the need for interdisciplinary communication and collaboration to address health issues including emerging zoonotic diseases, climate change impacts, and the human-animal bond. It promotes complex problem solving using a systems framework that considers interactions between humans, animals, and their shared environment. While many medical educators may not yet be familiar with the concept, the One Health approach has been endorsed by a number of major medical and public health organizations and is beginning to be implemented in a number of medical schools. In the research setting, One Health opens up new avenues to understand, detect, and prevent emerging infectious diseases, and also to conduct translational studies across species. In the clinical setting, One Health provides practical ways to incorporate environmental and animal contact considerations into patient care. This paper reviews clinical and research aspects of the One Health approach through an illustrative case updating the biopsychosocial model and proposes a basic set of One Health competencies for training and education of human health care providers.”
