University of California San Francisco Give to UCSF

Jessica Metcalf is a demographer with broad interests in evolutionary ecology, infectious disease dynamics and public policy. She works on questions ranging from how changing human demography might change infectious disease incidence and spread; to what drives dynamics of rubella and other childhood infections through space and time; and how these various patterns intersect with vaccine deployment.  .

Dr Metcalf completed her PhD at Imperial College on the evolutionary demography of monocarpic perennials. Her post-doctoral research was conducted at various institutions. She studied the evolution of senescence at the Max Planck Institute of Demographic Research, the inference of tree demographic parameters at Duke University, and infectious disease dynamics at Pennsylvania State University and Princeton University.

Join the EPPIcenter at UCSF in welcoming Dr Metcalf as a seminar speaker.
