Joe Hanson

Scientist, Science Communicator, Ph.D. student

I’m a scientist, a science communicator, a Ph.D. student, often prone to loud music and stiff drinks. 

During the day I study RNA biology and genetic engineering. The rest of the time I am a passionate science communicator, enjoying a full, fun existence in Austin, TX. I publish one of the top science blogs on Tumblr, and I produce events for Science in the Pub.

I can't help but love science and love life. I try to add entertainment and humor to both of them. Check out my homes on the web:
