” … The enduring popularity of A Friend in Need also points to the enduring bond that humans have with their canine friends and other domesticated animals. The health of humans is closely connected to the health of animals and our shared environment. The expansion of the population into new areas, climate changes, and travel and trade have led to the spread of new or emerging zoonotic diseases. Approaches like One Health address such risks by promoting collaboration among experts worldwide in human, animal, and environmental health. The goal is to improve the health of both humans and animals, including livestock, wildlife, and the beloved pets that bring companionship, delight, and enrichment to our lives.”

“…these findings highlight important One Health implications, as climate-driven changes in fasciolosis risk may undermine livestock productivity, and challenge the resilience of livestock-derived food systems. The study provides an evidence base to support climate-responsive surveillance, risk-based control strategies, and integrated animal health and environmental policy development.”

Unfortunately, this will be the last issue of UTMB’s One Health Newsletter

May 26, 2026 • 1:53 p.m.

Colleagues

It is with considerable dismay that I must report that due to the loss of support, we no longer have the manpower to continue developing and releasing our monthly UTMB One Health Newsletter. Hence, this 45th issue (June 2026) will likely be our last.

The newsletter reports are archived on our UTMB One Health website: https://www.utmb.edu/one-health/news-events/newsletter-issues

Since our first issue was released in April 2022, young scholars at UTMB have benefitted from interviewing many of you and summarizing your One Health research and training in the newsletter. Also, our newsletter helped the scholars hone their writing skills, as well as enhancing the awareness of the excellent UTMB One Health program. The newsletter often went out to more than 5,000 email addresses.

We thank our young scholar writers, our editors, and our readers for your enthusiastic support.

Sincerely

Professor Gregory C. Gray, MD, MPH

Departments of Internal Medicine (Infectious Diseases Division) and Microbiology & Immunology
