Veterinary Neuropathology in the One Health Approach
This special issue belongs to the section “Anatomy, Histology and Pathology“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nowadays, there is a growing convergence of human and animal medicine. Neuropathology plays a crucial role in understanding and diagnosing neurological disorders in both human and animal populations. Such an approach is not only very helpful for infectious diseases affecting the brain, but also for non-transmissible or non-communicable diseases such as dementia, cerebrovascular diseases and other brain disorders.
We invite researchers, pathologists, and veterinarians in general, experts in related fields, to contribute their original research and review articles on various topics within veterinary neuropathology. Some areas of interest include neurodegenerative diseases, infectious neuropathies, neuro-oncology, comparative neuropathology and emerging zoonotic diseases affecting the nervous system.
Through this Special Issue, we aim to enhance our understanding of veterinary neuropathology within the broader context of One Health. We appreciate your contributions to advancing the field of veterinary neuropathology through the lens of One Health.
Dr. Simona Sacchini
Guest Editor
