Erin Mordecai
Associate Professor of Biology and Senior Fellow at the Woods Institute for the Environment
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research focuses on the ecology of infectious disease. We are interested in how climate, species interactions, and global change drive infectious disease dynamics in humans and natural ecosystems. This research combines mathematical modeling and empirical work. Our main study systems include vector-borne diseases in humans and fungal pathogens in California grasses.

João Vitor Moreira
Masters Student in Education, admitted Autumn 2025
BioExperienced in AI development, data science, and software engineering, with hands-on work in content moderation and abuse detection systems. I design and evaluate models that balance safety and user experience, including human-in-the-loop workflows and bias-aware approaches. My research explores how information propagates across social networks and how bias emerges in AI-driven learning environments. Motivated to work in Trust & Safety to build scalable systems that protect users and promote healthy online communities.

Kimber Moreland, Ph.D.
Physical Science Research Scientist
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsCurrently my research mainly focuses on soil carbon biogeochemistry in different land use types such as agriculture, forests, meadows, and grasslands. I use stable and radioactive isotopes to trace the movement of carbon and nitrogen through the entire soil system. Specifically, I have focused on response to fire, disturbance, and climate change.
