Claire Anderson
Postdoctoral Scholar, Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioAs a postdoctoral scholar interested in the intersections of human health, animal health, and the environment, I work across disciplines in Environmental Engineering (with Alexandria Boehm) and Epidemiology (with Jade Benjamin-Chung). My current work focuses on understanding the mechanisms of pathogen survival (including parasites and viruses) in the environment and microbial source tracking. My dissertation work centered on enveloped viruses, with a particular focus on understanding their persistence in the environment, transmission dynamics, and intervention strategies, especially in resource-constrained environments. Beyond my academic pursuits, I'm dedicated to increasing diversity, equity, and inclusion through outreach programs for students in every level of their education.
