Hello there,

I’m Heidi 🤠

Previously, I worked on neurobiology and physiology research around hunger and appetite homeostasis at UCSF. I then worked on improving nonviral CRISPR delivery to the brain at UC Berkeley.

Now, I’m doing neuroimmunology research at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. I’m broadly interested in aging biology, physiology, and neuroscience. I want to be a physician-scientist!

I’ll mostly write about biology, biotech, metascience, and medicine here, with the occasional book review or personal post. If any of that sounds interesting, feel free to subscribe!

You can also suggest topics you’re interested in reading / topics you think I should write about here.

Let’s chat!

Shoot me a message if anything you read resonates with you, if you’d like to suggest a topic you think I should write about, if you have book recommendations, or if you just want to say hi.
