Current Master's students

Grace Shaw
Grace earned her bachelor’s in biology from Lewis & Clark College in Portland, OR before going on to work for the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy where she managed the Mission blue butterfly translocation project at Milagra Ridge. Grace is interested in the environmental origins of zoonotic vector-borne pathogens and the link between anthropogenic pressures and newly emerging diseases. At San Francisco State University, Grace will be looking at the relationship between habitat connectivity and pathogen distribution and is eager to analyze spatial data using GIS. |

Jacoby Clark
Jacoby earned his B.S. in Human Biology from North Carolina State University, where his love for biology grew when he started taking classes and doing research on microbes. After completing a summer research experience at UC Berkeley, he wanted to continue learning about the microbial world by studying infectious diseases and their impact on humans. At San Francisco State University, Jacoby funded as an NIH RISE Fellow and is working to develop a pan-pathogen assay to detect tick-borne pathogens ticks from southern California. |

Vincent Mai
Vincent earned his B.S. in Environmental Sciences at Seattle University, where he was introduced to ecology through working on developing genomic studies for an array of urban meso-carnivores in Dr. Mark Jordan’s lab. He is interested in studying the intersections between ecology and emerging infectious diseases, especially as it relates to climate change and biological invasion. Currently at San Francisco State University, Vincent is conducting molecular and serological research to determine the vertebrate reservoir host(s) of an emerging tick-borne disease Rickettsia phillipii (364D), the etiological agent of Pacific Coast tick fever. |
