The Team

I’m interested in conservation and sustainability, particularly the connection between nature recovery and human wellbeing. I care about understanding humans as part of the living world and exploring how healthy ecosystems support both biodiversity and society. I’m super excited to continue on at Print, making different scientific areas and perspectives more accessible in a cohesive and exciting way using an interdisciplinary approach!

I’m delighted to be continuing this term as a Print Editor! Although I hold a degree in biochemistry, I’m particularly interested in translating molecular science into mathematically driven bioengineering solutions. I think we often underestimate how much we can understand beyond our own fields, so I enjoy helping show that STEM is far more interdisciplinary—and approachable—than it might initially seem!

As a Junior Print Editor (/biochemist/aspiring science communicator), hoping to read and help edit many interesting articles in the print. Looking forward to contributing to the magazine!

I am a third year Biology student, with a particular interest in marine biology along with immunology and its applications. As web editor for the Oxford Scientist, I hope to make scientific research more accessible in order to encourage others to learn more about the breadth of fascinating topics where new discoveries are being made. Scientific communication is vital to sharing ideas, and shaping how we view and interact with the world around us.

I’m a second year Biologist. I believe that scientific information should be accessible, which is why excellent science communication skills are important. This is why, as the new Web Editor, I hope to keep the OxSci website running smoothly.

I’m Maddy, a biochemist with a particular interest in cell biology and cancer research. I’m also passionate about science communication and making scientific discoveries accessible for both scientists and non-scientists alike. Throughout my time at Oxford, I’ve been involved with OxSci in a variety of roles, both as an author and in several editorial positions, including working with the print team and now as a Features Editor!

My main scientific interest is targeted cancer therapies and my current research focuses on the role of DNA repair in cancer. I take every opportunity to represent my research institute at public engagement activities and am passionate about educating researchers on the importance of science communication. Before starting my DPhil, I obtained a BSc in Medical Biosciences at Imperial College London, where I was also Editor-in-Chief of the Imperial Bioscience Review.

Features editor with interests in the molecular biology of infectious disease and immunology (alongside a love for birds).

I’m a fourth year Biology student, and I’m particularly interested in immunology, ageing and computational biology. Being a Features Editor at OxSci means that I get to share my interest with others, as well as learning more about diverse research topics.

Hi! I am a senior editor for our Culture section, where we focus on how science and scientific media interacts with and shapes our everyday lives! I am a biology student starting my integrated masters year, where I will be researching behavioural adaptation in a UK bird species. I am very interested in the importance of making scientific research easily accessible to all readers to encourage engagement and enthusiasm!

Hi, I’m Mia! I’m currently studying for an undergraduate degree in physics and within my subject, I’m especially interested in particle physics and atmospheric physics. I’ve been editing for OxSci for a few years now, as ensuring people have high-quality and enjoyable scientific resources available to them is incredibly important to me. Joining the senior editorial team is a great opportunity for me to be able to commission articles on issues that I find particularly interesting (especially ethical issues in science). When I’m not focusing on my degree or OxSci, I spend a lot of time playing quizbowl both at our University society as well as at inter-university quiz tournaments!
