Ana Figueiredo is a Biologist with a master's degree in Applied Ecology, both completed at the University of Aveiro. Her research is focused on parasite dynamics on a wildlife-livestock-human interface under the One Health holistic framework. Ana completed her Biology degree in 2016, after nine months of curricular internship in Spain under the Erasmus+ programme, which was achieved in collaboration with the Junta de Extremadura, Consejería de Agricultura Desarrollo Rural Medio Ambiente y Energía. In 2018, Ana completed her master's degree in Applied Ecology with a thesis entitled "Parasite cross-transmission between the Iberian wolf and wild ungulate prey". This thesis was done in collaboration with the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Lisbon. Ana started her PhD on October 1st 2019, entitled "Breaking down barriers in One Health: an integrative approach to parasitic diseases in Portugal", which aims to understand the role of wildlife and domestic species as reservoirs and spreaders of parasitic diseases for humans. Ana is the first author of 10 publications in international peer-reviewed journals and co-author in 9. In her curriculum vitae, it is possible to find her participation in 3 LIFE+ projects, as well as her participation in several oral and poster presentations at national and international conferences. In addition to her academic career, Ana actively engaged in the organisation of several activities and national and international congresses. Despite her academic background in Biology, Ana worked throughout her scientific career in the field of veterinary medicine and conservation medicine, having great knowledge and a huge contact network in this area. Keywords: Parasites; Wildlife; Public Health; Livestock; Zoonoses; One Health; Conservation; Carnivores; Ungulates; Trophic-Interactions; Wildlife management.
