Elizabeth Rose Mayeda, UC Los Angeles

Associate Professor,
Epidemiology
She/Her/Hers

Elizabeth Rose Mayeda (she/her) is an Associate Professor in the Department of Epidemiology at the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health. Dr. Mayeda’s research focuses on identifying modifiable determinants of cognitive decline, dementia, and stroke in late life. Her research program has both applied and methodological themes. She focuses on describing and identifying mechanisms contributing to disparities in late-life cognitive and brain health. She also leads work addressing methodological challenges in longitudinal studies of stroke, cognitive aging, and dementia risk. Her long-term research goals are to (1) identify effective population-level strategies to prevent dementia and eliminate disparities in dementia and (2) develop research tools to strengthen causal inference in dementia research and lifecourse epidemiology.

Dr. Mayeda serves on the leadership committees of the Methods in Longitudinal Research on Dementia (MELODEM) Initiative and the Advanced Psychometrics Methods in Cognitive Aging Conference. She is recognized as an emerging leader in the fields of dementia and epidemiology: in 2019, she served as a member of the Health Disparities Session of the NIH Alzheimer’s Disease-Related Dementias Summit and gave an NIH Rising Star Invited Lecture, and in 2020, she received the Society for Epidemiologic Research Brian MacMahon Early Career Award.

Wen-hsin Yeh, UC Berkeley

Distinguished Professor, History She/Her/Hers I am a historian of late imperial and modern China and the Chinese maritime. My current project, on maritime China, explores the following: a) Chinese constructions of the maritime as domains of sovereignty and territorialization; b)Chinese diaspora and the cultural constructions of de-territorialized Chineseness; c) the transformation of Taiwan as a site where the diverging trends and the geo-strategic dynamics intersect. I am interested in related issues both of internal laws and national constructions. Email: sha@berkeley.edu Website: https://history.berkeley.edu/wen-hsin-yeh LinkedIn:
