Forschung vernetzt - Expertise | Dialogue | Ideas

Scientific director: Pro-Rector Research and Transfer Prof. Dr. Daniel Schiller

Thematic focus for 2026: One Health

Venue: Alfried Krupp Wissenschaftskolleg

Event language: English

“Research networking helps simply by providing an opportunity to exchange ideas with colleagues you don't see every day.”

Are your research topics and ideas related to One Health – an approach that aims to sustainably balance and optimize the health of people, animals and ecosystems? Are looking for (inter)disciplinary methodological or technical expertise? Do you have special methodological expertise and a corresponding tool and are looking for applications for it? Are you just curious what One Health is all about and do you want to get in touch with researchers you don't know yet?

... then you are cordially invited to ‘Forschung vernetzt’ on 24 June 2026 at the Alfried Krupp Wissenschaftskolleg

With this informal, effective networking event, we have been inviting Greifswald scientists since 2018 to get to know each other across faculty boundaries and engage in exchange.

Special Guests
As an extension of the format, we will invite scientists from Kiel Life Science to Greifswald this year to exchange ideas and explore potential collaborations, tailored to the research focus of the session. Kiel Life Science is one of the four research foci of the University of Kiel, with strong expertise in One Health related disciplines.

This year, the One Health Days 2026 will focus on the One Health research priority at the University of Greifswald. To this end, "Forschung vernetzt" and the strategy conference of the T!Raum One Health Region Vorpommern are joining forces under the motto Science meets Transfer to shed light on One Health from both a scientific and a transfer-related perspective. In addition, the Aktionstag Gesundheit und Nachhaltigkeit on 25 June 2026 and the Wissenschaftstag on 27 June 2026 will offer opportunities to learn about One Health and engage in conversation with stakeholders from the region.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Dr Stefan Seiberling, Maria Moynihan and Sara Hackert at the Research Support Centre (zffuni-greifswaldde).
