Dr. Gebreyes and colleagues will expand the digitization of the global One Health initiative between Ohio State, Ethiopia and beyond. They will develop a cluster of health science courses relating to the intersection of human and other animal health and launch them on iTunesU to expand global reach to benefit Ohio State and global partner students. They will provide iPads to students and instructors to improve access to course materials, enable interaction among multiple locations, including Columbus campus, and facilitate research activities. The project will launch a prototype One Health App (OneH) to coordinate these activities and for research and outreach purposes.
