Dr. Melania M.に依頼

United States

Medical writer with 15+ years of experience in cancer research

プロフィール概要

I am a science communicator and researcher with a strong background in cancer biology, particularly prostate cancer. I am currently working on colorectal cancer in Ferrari’s lab at UC Berkeley. Alongside my research, I have published in peer-reviewed journals and regularly serve as a peer reviewer for Springer Nature. Through my research, I have developed skills in producing original articles, posters, presentations, and grant applications. Previously, I volunteered as a science writer for BioNews, part of the Progress Educational Trust (PET), where I gained experience creating news stories and reporting on biomedical research advances for a general audience. This experience deepened my commitment to making complex scientific topics accessible and engaging. Additionally, I create blog content and infographics. Through my LinkedIn posts, I focus on evidence-based nutrition, aiming to enhance public understanding and promote healthier lifestyles with clear and accurate information.
