Vector Control and Parasitic Infection in Animals

Dear Colleagues,

We invite researchers to share their latest discoveries in our Special Issue on parasite control and infectious agents that affect animal health, including those with repercussions for human health. Studies that explore the influence of environmental factors and climate change on the transmission and spread of these parasites are also welcome. The objective of this Special Issue is to contribute to the most recent advances in the diagnosis, epidemiology, and control of parasites that affect wild or domestic animals, with an emphasis on those of zoonotic importance. We seek to promote the exchange of knowledge among researchers from different areas of health, strengthening cooperation in tackling the complexity of diseases that affect both animals and humans.
