Malissa Rodenburg

I am an independent science writer, poet, and writer of fiction. I’ve written for top universities, including Weill Cornell Medicine, Johns Hopkins Magazine, Princeton, and University of Colorado. I have bylines in Science, Well + Good, Men's Journal, Women’s Running, Outside, and other national publications. I am a skilled interviewer, researcher, and writer for general audiences. My passions lie in writing scientific profiles and uncovering news about cutting edge research. More specifically, I love being able to thread health discoveries into the context of everyday life. In my free time I write poetry and fiction; they are the creative fuel that keep me on my toes as a storyteller. My creative work has been featured in Hog River Press, Stand, and Steam Ticket.
