40th Chemnitz Seminar

The 40th Chemnitz Seminar is held under the title "Sensor Systems for One Health."

Over two days, we will discuss with representatives from industry and academia how technological systems can support the One Health approach. One Health considers the interconnected health of humans, animals, and the environment and involves work across various fields such as human and veterinary medicine, environmental and agricultural sciences, or food technology. In all these areas, intelligent systems for analyzing pathogens, capturing vital data, or monitoring living conditions play a major role today and are essential for the rapid diagnosis of critical conditions.

During the Chemnitz Seminar, current and innovative research and development efforts in these systems, such as wearables, biosensors, and food monitoring systems, will be presented. One session will exclusively focus on the results from the GREENER project, which is dedicated to determining the lowest concentrations of health-hazardous substances (endocrine disruptors) in water using NIR absorption spectroscopy. Information on funding programs as well as research and market trends surrounding the One Health approach will provide stimuli for discussing cooperation opportunities and future project ideas.
