Amy Goldberg is an Associate Professor in Human Genetics at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). Her research focuses on the evolution of population genetics in primate and pathogen interactions. Dr. Goldberg's work investigates how humans and other species adapt to new environments and hosts, especially in the context of demographic history and its effects on phenotypic variation and disease risk. The Goldberg lab employs genetic data across multiple species and integrates demographic, archaeological, paleontological, and environmental records to understand evolutionary and ecological forces shaping population variations and their biological consequences. Dr. Goldberg is also interested in the development of theories and methods related to her research.
Department of Economics admits primarily for the PhD program.
