Published Work
Proof before the pitch.
AlphaFold predicted the shape. But the shape kept changing — and the reason why turned out to implicate a chaperone protein that had been hiding in plain sight since 1987.

Does your science fit the brief?
Expand each beat to see specific topics, representative outlets, and piece count. If your research sits between categories, that's usually a feature, not a problem.
From single-neuron electrophysiology to large-scale connectomics — and the translation gap between bench findings and clinical headlines.
Attribution science, carbon accounting, and the policy-science interface — written for audiences who need accuracy without the jargon wall.
CRISPR, polygenic scores, and the ethics of germline editing — with enough methods fluency to interview principal investigators without a translator.
Battery chemistry, semiconductor fabrication, and the supply-chain geopolitics of critical minerals — the physical infrastructure of the energy transition.
Study design literacy, effect size interpretation, and the public communication of risk — built during four years of pandemic-era science journalism.
