One Health DefinitionOne Health has been defined as "the collaborative effort of multiple disciplines — working locally, nationally, and globally — to attain optimal health for people, animals and the environment"

Unites the entire spectrum of medical expertise with the goal of improving and protecting animals and public
health worldwide
One Health
One Health HistoryThe recognition that environmental factors can impact human health can be traced as far back as to the Greek physician Hippocrates (c. 460 BCE – c. 370 BCE) in his text "On Airs, Waters, and Place".
He promoted the concept that public health depended on a clean environment.
Hippocrates
One Health HistoryLucius Junis Moderatus Columella wrote a work Segregation and Quarantine, which was an early text on agriculture and lead to a basic form of One Health, in that it advised people and animals to be kept separate on farms.
One Health History
Rudolph Carl Virchow (1821 – 1902)
“Between animal and human medicine there is no dividing line-nor should there be.
The object is different but the experience obtained constitutes the basis of all medicine."
COLUMBIA VETERINARY COLLEGE (1877-1884)
“It is desired to have graduate not only a horse-doctor or a cow-doctor, but a man qualified to give medical advice upon the diseases of all domestic animals; to make him, in fact, a doctor of comparative medicine”.
Professor Bates (Dean)
Langdon Frothingham
1889
Harvard, 1882-1901
New York-American Veterinary College, within the NYU School of Medicine 1899-1922
NYC, East 26th Street, 1924
“The medico in an Australian sheep district not only has to prescribe for his patients both man and beast, but has to act as his own dispenser and, in fact, combines the duties of a doctor, veterinary surgeon and a chemist.”

One Health Library Guide created by Duke Global Health Librarian Duke Global Health librarian, Diane Harvey, immediately reached out to the One Health course organizers to get involved. She has put together a fantastic resource for the course and our students, a One Health LibGuide.
This guide will be very helpful in researching case studies and learning more about One Health. Diane has been working with her counterparts at UNC, Mellanye Lackey, and NC State, to provide resources to the students.

“The threat to human health will persist as long as the problem persists in animals.”
Dr. Peter HorbyWorld Health OrganizationViet Nam
Greater progress in prevention and control of infectious diseases requires a more directed effort focusing on the complex interplay between human health, the health of animals, and the environment.

Terminology/Information TechnologyICD-10 is the 10th revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD), a medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO).
It codes for diseases, signs and symptoms, abnormal findings, complaints, social circumstances, and external causes of injury or diseases.
The US ICD-10 CM, for instance, has some 68,000 codes. The US also has ICD-10 PCS a procedure code system not used by other countries that contains 76,000 codes

One Health Through Multiple Lenses
"Blind monks examining an elephant“ an ukiyo-e print by Hanabusa Itchō (1652–1724).
One Health LensesTranslational and Comparative Medicine
What can we learn from one species that can be translatedinto another species
Example:Al-Mashhadi and colleagues created a large animal model of familial hypercholesterolemia FH by genetically altering Yucatan minipigs.
These animals reproduce features of the human disease, and could thus be used for translational atherosclerosis research into new drugs and imaging agents.
