Hello! My name is Chaney, and I’m a medical student (and Davenport alum!) interested in emerging infections, genomic epidemiology, and humanitarian medicine. Before medical school, I was in the 5-year BS/MPH program (MB&B ‘19 and EMD ‘20) and was on the field hockey team. Since undergrad, I’ve done research at the School of Public Health studying arboviral and SARS-CoV-2 phylogenetics, and I’m currently doing a dedicated research year developing lower cost sequencing for a variety of microbial pathogens. I also work with the Yale Center for Asylum Medicine, the HAVEN free clinic, and the New Haven Medical Response Corps.
Outside of school and medicine, I love reading (mostly sci fi), working out, board games, and any outdoor activity.
Please feel free to reach out for advice, just to chat, or for anything at all!
