This handbook is entirely dedicated to avian salmonellosis based on a handy and visual approach of the topic. Being a critical public health issue, avian salmonellosis is a very important condition that should be acquainted for, controlled and prevented by every veterinary surgeon involved in the poultry industry. A handbook like this will help the experts understand, diagnose, treat and control this disease and thus contribute to maintain the animals’ and the final consumers’ optimum health status. Vaccination procedures are well described in order to provide the main guidelines to avoid vaccination failures and help controlling the prevalence and incidence. Issues like management control and biosecurity are also included to complete this practical guide on avian salmonellosis.

PhD in Veterinary Medicine from the Complutense University of Madrid in 1999, Diploma in Health by the National School of Health Carlos III of Madrid in 1996, master’s degree in management of centres and social and health projects in 2010 and master’s degree in health and porcine production by the University of Lleida in 2011. He is currently the Dean of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of the University CEU Cardenal Herrera and member of the European and National Conference of Deans of the different degrees of health sciences.

He has formerly worked as head of the organization and development of the means of cultivation department of the Instituto Llorente S.A. of Madrid. He has organized and developed the laboratory of campaigns for the livestock sanitary of the regional agrarian laboratory of the community of Madrid.

He has performed stays at the department of virology of the central veterinary laboratory in Weybridge (United Kingdom) developing different diagnostic techniques in veterinary virology together with many other international stays in Italy and Hungary as well as Spain.

He has focused his research in two well defined lines, on the one hand in virology, specifically in the virus of bovine viral diarrhea and Border disease, West Nile virus and avian pneumovirus. As second-line he has studied diseases related to public health, (leishmaniasis, leptospirosis, salmonellosis, campylobacteriosis and ehrlichiosis) and possible zoonoses such as hepatitis E. This productive activity has resulted in several research projects obtained in public competition, the direction of various Diplomas of Advanced Studies (DEAs), and doctoral theses. He has maintained an active participation in congresses and national and international conferences as well as publications in conference proceedings; he also published monographs, book chapters and scientific articles in national and international journals.
