The One Health framework is increasingly being applied to the management, control, and even elimination of neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), a set of infectious diseases that, collectively, affect more than one billion people across almost 150 countries. NTDs are some of the most common infections in the world; they cause substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly in regions with little access to medical care and other resources. Although there is increasing recognition of the major public health threat presented by NTDs, the ecological complexities of their transmission continue to pose challenges for their control and elimination. Some NTDs are zoonotic, meaning that they can be transmitted between humans and animals and, as such, present obstacles for public health and veterinary services in addition to concerns for wildlife conservation. Vector-borne NTDs necessitate measures that integrate consideration of the environment into public health strategies in order to sustainably reduce disease transmission. This book presents a collection of papers that explore various aspects of how the One Health concept is being applied to NTD control around the world, from genomics and diagnostic tools to improved surveillance and disease management. Encompassing research from Central America, the Caribbean, Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa, the collection emphasizes the diversity of NTDs as well as the critical importance of multisectoral collaboration for their control and elimination. 606 $aEpidemiology and Medical statistics$2bicssc 606 $aMedicine and Nursing$2bicssc 610 $aanimal health 610 $abiosecurity 610 $ablood meal analysis 610 $aBritish India 610 $acanine rabies 610 $acentral point vaccination 610 $achagas disease 610 $aCivil Veterinary Department 610 $aclimate change impact 610 $acolonial 610 $acontrol 610 $aDNA extraction 610 $aDracunculus medinensis 610 $agenome 610 $aGiardia duodenalis 610 $aguinea worm 610 $aHonduras 610 $ahuman health 610 $ainfectious disease 610 $amanagement 610 $amass dog vaccination 610 $an/a 610 $aneglected tropical diseases 610 $aone health 610 $aOne Health 610 $aPanstrongylus geniculatus 610 $aPasteur Institute 610 $apoint-of-need diagnosis 610 $apost-kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL) 610 $apuppy vaccination 610 $areal-time PCR 610 $arecombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) 610 $aRhodnius pictipes 610 $aSchistosoma mansoni 610 $asequencing 610 $aseroepidemiology 610 $astray dogs 610 $aToxocara 610 $atoxocariasis 610 $atriatomine bugs 610 $aTrinidad and Tobago 610 $aTrypanosoma cruzi 610 $atrypanosomiasis 610 $aUganda 610 $avaccination 610 $avector host-feeding preferences 610 $awater, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) 610 $aWest Indies 610 $aZambia 610 $aZeroby30 610 $azoonoses 610 $azoonosis 615 7$aEpidemiology and Medical statistics 615 7$aMedicine and Nursing 700 $aStandley$b Claire J$4edt$01302989 702 $aBakuza$b Jared$4edt 702 $aPeterson$b Jennifer K$4edt 702 $aStandley$b Claire J$4oth 702 $aBakuza$b Jared$4oth 702 $aPeterson$b Jennifer K$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557686803321 996 $aOne Health and Neglected Tropical Diseases$93026812 997 $aUNINA
