This reprint volume of extended abstracts from the 7th CiiEM International Congress reflects the interdisciplinary scope of the event, held in Caparica, Portugal, from 2 to 4 July 2025, with the theme of “Empowering One Health to Reduce Social Vulnerabilities.” It gathers 25 peer-reviewed contributions originally presented as oral or poster communications, selected from over 130 scientific submissions. The volume highlights the diversity of research bridging health sciences, psychology, education, forensic sciences, and biomedical innovation. Topics range from clinical practice and patient-centered care—such as xerostomia management, diagnostic delay in burning mouth syndrome, and rehabilitation in Parkinson’s disease—to technological applications in dentistry, endodontics, and cancer prognosis using artificial intelligence. Broader societal dimensions are also represented, with studies on intimate partner violence, sexual harassment in higher education, young offenders’ rehabilitation, compassion fatigue in firefighters, and attitudes toward community service. Contributions addressing sustainable food systems, pharmaceutical profiling of drug abuse, and risks of polypharmacy further illustrate the One Health perspective. Equally significant are the pedagogical innovations presented, including modular veterinary curricula and multi-strategic models for science teaching, underscoring the congress’ role in fostering academic development. Together, these works demonstrate how interdisciplinary research, and education can inform health policies, strengthen resilience, and reduce social vulnerabilities.
