Catherine Neuwirth

Catherine Neuwirth serves as a Clinical Professor and Hospital Professor with dual institutional affiliations at the French National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and Environment (INRAE) and the Faculty of Medicine of a University Hospital. Her primary research role is embedded within UMR Agroecology, while her clinical academic position operates through Division MICSOL and Team MERS at the medical faculty, reflecting a unique interdisciplinary nexus between agricultural science and medical research.

Her scholarly focus bridges critical domains where agricultural systems intersect with human health outcomes, specifically examining:

• Agroecological practices impacting food safety and nutrition security
• Environmental exposure pathways affecting public health
• Sustainable farming systems' implications for disease prevention
• Translational research connecting soil health to clinical outcomes
• Epidemiological studies on agricultural chemical exposures
• One Health approaches integrating environmental and medical data

As leader of the MERS research team under Division MICSOL, Dr. Neuwirth directs investigations into clinically relevant environmental health questions, though specific project details remain unspecified in available documentation. Her work inherently requires collaboration between agricultural scientists and medical professionals to address complex challenges at the food-health-environment interface, with potential applications in precision agriculture for health promotion and environmental risk mitigation in clinical contexts.
