Graduate Program 4i : Environmental Transitions and Therapeutic Innovations in Inflammatory and Infectious Diseases

In order to address the challenges posed by our societies in transition—such as the emergence of new diseases, climate change, shifting lifestyles, and the rapid pace of technological innovation—health education must adapt. Only an interdisciplinary approach will be capable of addressing the complexity of scientific issues, challenges, and public health concerns. The graduate program “Therapeutic Innovations and Environmental and Societal Transitions in Inflammatory and Infectious Diseases” aims to train experts capable of understanding the complexity of health determinants and developing innovative therapeutic and preventive strategies in a context of multiple transitions. It is based on three complementary pillars. The first, One Health, considers the interdependence between human, animal, and environmental health, incorporating the concepts of the exposome and the socio-exposome and addressing the right to a health-promoting environment. The second pillar is precision health, which personalizes treatments based on biological, clinical, and environmental data, leading to the rise of digital health and AI, and raising ethical and regulatory issues. Finally, an interdisciplinary approach brings together health law and economics (cost-effectiveness), the humanities and social sciences, and environmental sciences to design sustainable, effective, and socially responsible solutions to improve public health.
