Life member and Scientific Committee member

Europe
2018–2027

I am a public engagement and science communication professional with experience of delivering face-to-face science engagement, science writing, radio presenting and delivering training for researchers.

Based in Scotland, I am the Public Engagement manager for the Leverhulme Research Centre for Forensic Science at the University of Dundee where I have embedded citizen science approaches into our research. I was the Chair for the PCST 2025 Conference in Aberdeen and the Co-chair of the local organising committee for PCST 2020+1.

I started The SciCommer weekly newsletter for Science Communication in 2020 and I was the Science Editor for The Biochemist publication between 2020 – 2023.
