Working with archival audio at public radio's Science Friday.
I'm Lauren, a science journalist, multimedia producer, and editor. Currently, I am an associate editor covering health and medicine for Scientific American. Before joining Scientific American, I was an associate editor for Popular Science and a producer and reporter at the public radio show, Science Friday. I got my bachelor's degree in biology and minored in English before earning a master's in science journalism.
I frequently discuss my work and experience on stage, on panels, on the radio, and in journalism classes and workshops. I have also mentored early- and mid-career science journalists through The Open Notebook and AAAS Mass Media Science & Engineering Fellowship. In addition to my work in journalism, I'm a proud long-time library associate.
You can check out my stories at Scientific American, Popular Science, Science Friday, School Library Journal, Scholastic MATH, IEEE Spectrum, Atlas Obscura, and more. I live in New York, but grew up in the heart of California—the San Joaquin Valley.
