Going to extremes for the answers.

Lynne Peeples has written for Audubon Magazine, Scientific American, Reuters Health, Popular Science, OnEarth, Health.com, Anesthesiology News and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. Her interests gravitate toward issues critical to the well-being of people and the planet--from promising public health and renewable energy projects near her home in New York City to conservation battles in her native Pacific Northwest. She recently completed a master's in "Science, Health and Environmental Reporting" from New York University, where she was the editor-in-chief of the program's web magazine, Scienceline. She spent last summer at Scientific American as an online editorial intern, and last fall interning at Audubon Magazine. Before NYU, Lynne worked for Harvard University crunching numbers for HIV clinical trials and environmental health studies, while teaching an introductory biostatistics course. She also holds an M.S. in Biostatistics from Harvard and a B.A. in Mathematics from St. Olaf College. Resume [pdf]
