I am a freelance science journalist, editor, and translator. I have covered ecology, evolution, biophysics, earth science, climate, and archaeology.
Most recently, I focused on molecular biology for the European Molecular Biology Laboratory. I have also written for Live Science, the Smithsonian Insider, Hakai Magazine and elsewhere.
