Penn Climate welcomes Andrew Hoffman, Gilbert S. Kahn Dean of Veterinary Medicine at Penn Vet, for a seminar titled “Climate Change Through the Lens of Veterinarians.”
Veterinary medicine aims to protect and preserve animal health, biodiversity, and agriculture-food systems, all areas heavily impacted by climate change. We will discuss the connections between climate change and veterinary medicine while highlighting opportunities to engage across schools through a One Health framework. Finally, we will discuss Penn Climate Insights, a new knowledge-sharing platform originating from Penn Vet that aims to bolster climate education and interdisciplinary collaborations across Penn.
