Maya Groner is a postdoctoral researcher in the department of health management.

Her research focuses on how environmental stressors and farm management practices affect the prevalence and intensity of infection in freshwater and marine vertebrates.

Currently, Dr. Groner is developing models to explore how different medicinal treatments and biological controls for sea lice and pancreatic disease in farmed salmon alter the epidemiology of these pathogens in farmed and wild salmonids.

Her previous work explored the effects of community structure and environmental context on the dynamics of a fungal pathogen (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis) in North American amphibians.
