Book excerpt: More than sixty percent of emerging infectious diseases that affect humans are caused by zoonotic pathogens. Over the last two centuries, there have been many examples of zoonotic microorganisms that have caused important epidemics or pandemics around the world. However, currently, zoonotic emerging infectious diseases are still or are even a higher threat for global health, including animal, public and environmental health, probably due to factors such as globalization, the increasing temperature of global health, intensive agriculture or industrialization have favored the emergence or re-emerging of these diseases, among many others. Today more than ever, the high interconnection of human, animals and the environment highlights the need of a One Health approach to understand aspects related with the transmission or control of these emerging pathogens. This Research Topic aims to provide a collection of comprehensive articles of different areas of interest such as epidemiology, diagnosis and pathology in infections caused by emerging or re-emerging zoonotic pathogens, including viruses, parasites, and bacteria, in humans, domestic animals and/or wildlife. The major areas to be included regarding emerging or re-emerging zoonoses might be: - Epidemiology, including research on host range, transmission, genetic diversity, prevalence and distribution - Pathology, including clinical signs and lesions caused by the infection of emerging zoonotic pathogens - Diagnosis, including novel techniques of indirect or direct assays as well as novel approaches in the diagnosis of these pathogens. - Control of emerging zoonoses.
