I studied molecular biology for years. My
first big story (while in The Program) was on marine
snow, and mostly I covered the life
sciences the first time around (I'm partial to biochemistry
and structural biology especially), but doing
time at two national labs grew me on climate change, chemistry, physics and materials sciences, some
areas that undeservedly do not get a lot of play in
the media. You can find a lot of my
press releases at Eurekalert!. I'm not
sure what I'll be covering in my new gigs, but come
back and find them here!
While working at the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory (now the INL), I learned about "key capabilities" and "core competencies" -- otherwise known as areas of expertise. Here are mine.
You can find details of my education and past research life by clicking on those words.
