On 10-11 February 2020, InsSciDE’s work package on Health will host a seminar at the University of Vienna. The event will consist of academic presentations and interdisciplinary panels, mingling factions from across the public health sphere. InsSciDE case study authors from the Health work package will showcase their research in dialogue with other researchers, covering cases such as antimicrobial resistance, vaccination, and diagnostic technologies for newly emerging diseases. Specific attention will be devoted to the role of social sciences and humanities in informing infectious disease control, in dialogue with EU project SONAR GLOBAL. The end of the workshop will be marked by commentary from and discussions with affiliates of the Global Health Centre, the Austrian Ministry of Labour, Social Affairs, Health, and Consumer Protection, as well as InsSciDE’s coordinator and President of the Historical Committee of Inserm (From Science to Health) Pascal Griset.
