Ingrid Chen is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF). Trained as an organic chemist, Ingrid has been conducting malaria research since 2011, with interdisciplinary expertise spanning from drug discovery and clinical trials (phase 1 and 2) to implementation, cost-effectiveness, antimalarial delivery within the informal private sector, and more. Since joining the UCSF's Malaria Elimination Initiative (MEI) in 2013, Ingrid led the Primaquine Rollout Group, the Antiparasite Rollout Group (APROG), and the scientific sections of the Lancet Commission on Malaria Eradication. Her current research focuses on spatial repellents, a product class that can accelerate the trajectory to malaria eradication while addressing other vector-borne diseases.
