Emma Hodcroft (born 1986) is a British-American[1] molecular epidemiologist at the Institute for Social and Preventive Medicine at the University of Bern.[2][3][4] Her research focuses on the phylogenetics of viruses and other pathogens, mapping the spread and evolution of different genetic variants. Hodcroft is a developer on the Nextstrain project,[5] an open science project that tracks the transmission chains of SARS-CoV-2 and other pathogens.[6] In 2020, she originated CoVariants.org, a project tracking SARS-CoV-2 variants.[7]
Nextstrain's work gained global prominence during the COVID-19 pandemic and have been cited widely in scientific and media coverage.[8][9][10][11] As a scientist tracking the spread of the virus across the globe, Hodcroft has co-authored papers on topics including how the early pandemic spread from country to country, the potential for seasonality, and the prevalence and spread of variants of concern.[12][13][14]
