About
I have a background in microbiology, molecular biology, virology, neuroscience, and bioinformatics, with a focus on human disease. My writing draws on scientific literature to explain complex biological mechanisms with clarity and precision. I cover topics including immunology, metabolism, the microbiome, and cancer biology, with an emphasis on evidence-based scientific and health communication.
