Hello! I’m Leonie Mercedes, a science writer based in London.

I write about innovation in engineering and sustainability for Ingenia, and have written about nature and wildlife for DK and Atlas Obscura. I’ve also written festive science-themed brainteasers for New Scientist.

Subscribers to my nerdy newsletter Science, Please receive a weekly drop of lecture listings, urban astronomy and nature tips every Monday.
