Iowa State was the nation\u2019s first land grant institution.<\/p>\n<p>One Health is the collaborative effort of multiple health science professions and their related disciplines working locally, nationally and globally to attain optimal health for people, animals, plants and the environment.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Mahr, a small animal practitioner throughout his career, served as president of the American Veterinary Medical Association in 2006-07. During his presidency, he revealed a vision for a One Health Initiative, which the AVMA established in collaboration with the American Medical Association in 2007.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIowa State\u2019s land grant mission which focuses on collaborative education, research and outreach, is truly consistent with the One Health approach,\u201d Dr. Mahr said. \u201cThis professorship will inform all audiences, including students, faculty and researchers about the importance of transcending institutional and disciplinary boundaries and transform the way human, animal, plant and ecosystem health professionals work together to improve the health of all living things and the environment worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Mahrs have long supported Iowa State\u2019s One Health initiative. The College of Veterinary Medicine One Health Lectureship Series was established in 2011 in honor of Dr. Mahr as he served as the chief executive officer of the One Health Commission, which was headquartered at Iowa State from 2011 through 2013.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThroughout our married life, Roger and I have always worked as a team,\u201d Marilyn Mahr said. \u201cIt has been especially rewarding to promote One Health as we have traveled together throughout the country and world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Mahr Professorship in One Health will also coordinate Iowa State\u2019s One Health courses and training opportunities, promote and illustrate the importance and value of the One Health approach, and pursue innovative and entrepreneurial opportunities for Iowa State to lead, connect and engage in various One Health agendas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very appreciative of the generosity of Roger and Marilyn Mahr,\u201d said Dr. Lisa K. Nolan, the Stephen G. Juelsgaard Dean of Veterinary Medicine. \u201cThis professorship will continue to allow the College of Veterinary Medicine to be a leader in One Health initiatives around the globe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Mahrs gift supports the university\u2019s $1.1 billion comprehensive fundraising campaign, <em>Forever True, For Iowa State<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contact:<\/strong><br \/>\n\tDave Gieseke, Veterinary Medicine Communications, 515-294-4257, dgieseke@iastate.edu<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- <div>From <a href='https:\/\/vetmed.iastate.edu\/article\/professorship-one-health-established-college-veterinary-medicine'>https:\/\/vetmed.iastate.edu\/article\/professorship-one-health-established-college-veterinary-medicine<\/a><\/div> -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":6420,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-6421","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"site_sections":["Alumni","VETMED"]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
