Academic career[edit]

Jaye is a medical anthropologist.[1] Jaye completed a Bachelor of Arts, a PhD and a Postgraduate Diploma of Tertiary Teaching at the University of Otago. Jaye then joined the faculty of the University of Otago, rising to associate professor in 2012,[2] and full professor in 2023.[3][4] Since 2020, Jaye has been the Associate Dean (Postgraduate) for the Division of Health Sciences at the university.[5][3] She has previously been head of the university's General Practice and Rural Health Department.[6]

Jaye has varied research interests. She has published on the need for greater interventions in the workplace to prevent injuries for older workers.[7] That study found that during their study period, more than a fifth of traumatic work injuries ACC claims were for workers aged 55–79 years.[7] The researchers pointed out that as the number of people working past retirement age is predicted to double by 2036, more would be need to be done to reduce hazards.[7]

Jaye also conducted an analysis of social media discourse related to the End of Life Choice Act 2019 on euthanasia, and investigated spirituality in a hospice setting.[8] Another research interest is rural health and well-being, especially how the Mycoplasma bovis outbreak affected farmers.[3]
