**About the Editors**

**David Carmena** (Phd.) Dr. Carmena's research focuses on zoonotic diseases caused by microeukaryotes (Cryptosporidium, Giardia, Blastocystis, Enterocytozoon) and helminth (EchinȬ ococcus) species, with a particular interest in those aspects related to the diagnosis, molecular epidemiology, transmission dynamics, and evaluation of the socioeconomic impact caused by these pathogens, both from the human and animal health perspective.

**David Gonz´alez-Barrio** (Phd.) Dr. Gonz´alez-Barrio's research is mainly focused on shared emerging diseases between domestic animals, wildlife, and humans, with a special interest in diagnostics, epidemiology, and molecular epidemiology in their main wildlife reservoirs.

**Pamela Carolina K¨oster** (BS) Ms. K¨oster's research is mainly focused on the detection and molecular characterization of diarrhoea-causing enteric protists in wildlife, with a special interest in endangered non-human primate species. Her research includes the identification and characterization of zoonotic transmission events and how anthropic activities influence t h e health status of free-living animal communities.
