I am an award-winning science journalist at New Scientist, a regular presenter and host of the BBC radio show The Naked Scientists, and author of the popular maths book Man Vs Maths.
After studying for a Master of Mathematics (MMath) at the University of Bath, I moved to Glasgow to study for a PhD in computer science at the University of Strathclyde. It was there that I fostered a love of science journalism by joining and then running a student science publication called theGIST.
Throughout my tenure as editor-in-chief we grew from fewer than 20 contributors to well over 100, we picked up awards from the Association of British Science Writers and The Guardian, amongst others, and became one of the best student publications in the country.
During a chaotic 6 months starting at the end of 2015, I wrote and defended my PhD thesis, wrote my first book, and decided that I wanted to become a full-time science journalist.
Shortly after that I got the job of technology reporter (although I cover maths as well) at New Scientist, and have been enjoying it ever since.
