Chloe Mirzayi
Adjunct Assistant Professor
Epidemiology and Biostatistics
She earned her PhD in Epidemiology from CUNY SPH under the mentorship of Dr. Levi Waldron.
Her research centers on causal inference in microbiome epidemiology, methodologically rigorous explorations of topics related to HIV risk, and the development of reproducible data infrastructure. A core contributor to the open-source Bioconductor ecosystem, she maintains bioinformatics packages to standardize microbial signature curation and analysis. Her work spans large-scale national cohorts and randomized trials covering COVID-19, HIV, substance use, and sexual health, with recent high-impact consensus statements appearing in "Nature Medicine" and "Nature Microbiology".
