The Best Science Writer in America

Ed Yong, a staff writer for The Atlantic, is the best science writer in America right now. His continuing series of articles about the pandemic is essential reading if you want to understand the progress of the pandemic–not just what is happening, but why.

I was happy to find out that he has a personal website where most of his articles are collected. I hadn't realized just how much he's written and how widely. There are articles for National Geographic, Scientific American, New Scientist, Aeon, Wired, and the New York Times, to name a few. 

There are also links to talks and interviews that he's given and much else to browse through.

If you haven't read any of his work yet, you are missing out on some of the best science writing today. Here are links to a few (non-pandemic) articles that piqued my interest.
