Health in Society Research Network

Rethinking Health. 
Shaping Society.

Health is not only determined by our personal behaviour or genetic predisposition. It is also strongly influenced by the social, political and economic conditions in which we live. 

Understanding health therefore requires a holistic approach that connects different areas – from biology and psychology to social factors and planetary environmental aspects.

In the Health in Society Research Network, scientists from different disciplines work together to conduct joint research into health, medicine and well-being. Our members contribute the specific perspective of their respective fields of expertise, whilst also taking local, regional and global contexts into account.

This not only leads to new scientific insights, but also to valuable partnerships with other research institutions and with stakeholders from civil society, politics and business. We create synergies and enable research that has a positive impact on society – interdisciplinary, innovative and collaborative.
