On the right, text reads “Breakout sessions: Prioritization” above an illustrated ranking bar chart labeled 1, 2, and 3 with an upward arrow. The design uses shades of blue, teal, orange, and purple.

📢 Outcomes from the EU-WISH International Workshop!

Experts worked together to define priorities for:

* Respiratory and emerging pathogens
* Antimicrobial resistance (AMR)
* Polio- and non-polio enteroviruses
* Illicit drugs, chemicals, and health-related biomarkers
