A short description of this blog.

Profile

Maryn McKenna is an award-winning journalist and author and a recovering newspaper reporter. She writes about public health, medicine and food policy, and finds emerging diseases strangely exciting.

You can find her new book SUPERBUG here, her first book BEATING BACK THE DEVIL here and some of her magazine articles here. (Sadly, her old newspaper articles are stuck behind nefarious paywalls.)

SUPERBUG has been featured on Fresh Air with Terry Gross, Science Friday and CBC's The Current as well as numerous other radio shows and print and online publications.

You can find Maryn on Twitter here and on Facebook here. For more about her writing, speaking, teaching and the personal stuff, check the "About" tab.
