Update: As of Fall 2009, I am a staff writer for a new publication, MIT News, covering research across a number of disciplines. I also contribute to our related publication, Technology Review. At MIT, my work continues to explore many kinds of links between culture, science, and technology. My pieces frequently draw upon my training in the history of science. You can learn more about me here. Contact me here.
