Associate Professor
Translational Genomics Research Institute and Northern Arizona University, Arizona, United States
Crystal Hepp is an Associate Professor at the Translational Genomics Research Institute and the School of Informatics, Computing, and Cyber Systems at Northern Arizona University. She is additionally part of the leadership team for the CDC-supported Pacific Southwest Regional Center of Excellence in Vector-Borne Diseases, which funds the presented effort. Her team's work is heavily focused on understanding viral transmission over time and space, through genomically characterizing viral genomes from environmental, wastewater, and human samples with the goal of identifying circulation breakpoints. She collaborates with vector control agencies from Arizona, California, Utah, Montana, Washington, Wyoming, Ohio, and Nevada - this work would not be possible without these partnerships.
