The Research Scientist Supervisor (RSS) II [Epidemiology/Biostatistics (Epi/Bio)] serves as the Chief of the Surveillance, Epidemiology, Assessment and Evaluation Section (SEAE), a highly visible program of key importance in planning, directing, coordinating, and conducting statewide surveillance epidemiology, and informatics of sexually transmitted and bloodborne infections in California. The RSS II directs staff and surveillance/epidemiologic/informatics activities to assist the Sexually Transmitted Diseases Control Branch (STDCB), the Division of Communicable Disease Control (DCDC), and CDPH in meeting general program goals and contributing to developing public health policies and recommendations to support the design, implementation, and evaluation of STDCB prevention activities in California.
