USHAnandini MOHANRAJ (usha)
Hello! I am a PhD researcher at the University of Helsinki and your host for the writing workshop series part of The Science Basement. I enjoy creative writing and continue learning new techniques and applying them to scientific storytelling. I have organized writing workshop series in spring 2022 and am excited to launch newer series in the fall 2022. I am also part of the Blogging Science team and a contributing author. I am excited to share my passion for creative science writing with fellow writing enthusiasts.
