Valeria Ramirez Castaneda
Postdoctoral Scholar, Economics
BioValeria Ramírez Castañeda is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the King Center on Global Development. Her research explores the intersection of urbanization, sustainability, and disease ecology, with a focus on Amazonian cities. She studies how urban expansion interacts with environmental change and vector-borne disease dynamics, using participatory research approaches to co-develop solutions with local communities. In addition to her ecological research, she examines the dominance of English in science and its structural consequences, working to promote more inclusive and multilingual scientific practices. Ramírez-Castañeda received her PhD in evolutionary biology from the University of California, Berkeley.
