Dear reader,
It’s been a while since I’ve been in touch, so I wanted to check in and let you know that I’m alive and well… mostly. At the moment, I’m stuck at home with a mild COVID case, which feels crummy, but has a silver lining - plenty of time to think and write!
Last June, in my post about obesity, I shared my plans to take a summer break from science communication to focus on family and train for a sprint triathlon (I did it!). Since then, I’ve extended this pause to create time and space to chart my next career move, an itch that has been growing stronger for the last few years.
Of course, I haven’t been entirely unplugged - I love sharing science too much for that! I’m still contributing to Those Nerdy Girls, answering questions about various health topics including: zinc supplements, nasal sprays, COVID vaccines, and rapid antigen tests (see links below).
In a nutshell, I’m keeping abreast of the latest science, but laying low while I sort out my next move.
That’s all for now. Thanks for being here. I’m honoured by the confidence you have in me as a messenger for reliable health information. I don’t take this privilege lightly, which is why I can never “throw together” a post!
I wish you and yours a very healthy and happy year ahead.
Best,
