SaxoChiLD is an interdisciplinary regional network
We are part of SaxoChiLD (Saxonian Child health innovation Leipzig-Dresden), a regional network comprising the Technische Universität Dresden, Leipzig University, the University Hospitals of Dresden and Leipzig, the Robert Koch Institute, the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, The Helmholz Center for Environmental Research and the Helmholz Institute for Metabolic, Obesity and Vascular Research in Germany. The overarching approach of SaxoChiLD is comprehensive epidemiological surveillance of child health and development within a changing environmental context, with special consideration of the interaction between psyche and soma.
