Dr. Jessica Gaevert is a postdoctoral researcher for Carolien van de Sandt within the Cellular Immunology Group in the Infection and Immunity and Global Health Theme at the Murdoch Children's Research Institute (MCRI).
Jessica completed her PhD in 2025 at the St. Jude Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences at St Jude Children's Research Hospital (United States) where she investigated cross-reactive CD8+ T cell receptors and how the cross-reactive repertoire changes across repeated influenza infections followed by one year of postdoctoral research.
In 2026 she relocated to MCRI to pursue postdoctoral research with Carolien van de Sandt focusing on T cell development and viral immunity across the human lifespan.
