Host, Aurora Aparicio interviews Dr. Beth Falls regarding ORCA’s “systems thinking” approach to scientific research. Applied science is different from basic science research, which typically seeks to distill a complex system down to its smallest component parts to understand it. Although this reductionist approach is necessary to advance scientific understanding, it is not an end point. Applied science builds on the work of basic science to generate actionionable results that can be used to solve problems. 

As you’ll hear on this episode, One Health is an applied science approach that recognizes the interconnections between the health of humans, animals, and the environment.
