Science stories

I'm fond of storytelling, and my philosophy is that no research project's too complicated for translation into a story fit for public digestion. As a  Pitt News science writer, I aimed to use stories to educate the Pitt student body about the interaction between fellow undergraduates and science.  I hope you have as good of a time reading the below stories as I had writing them.
