Curious about how testosterone affects our financial decisions? Ever wonder what a "peso event" is? Head over to the Kellogg Insight, the Kellogg School of Management's online research magazine. Kellogg not only cranks out research by the boatload, they also employ me to keep everyone abreast of it.
University faculty are fonts of useful knowledge. I started Expertly Wrapped to bring Kellogg Shool of Management faculty perspectives and research findings to bear on the news. I'll slip in my own expertise from time to time, too.
A few fellow science aficionados and I have started a science blog called Scidle. We speak with actual scientists, providing readers with first-hand reporting of science news. We also fill out the week with more typical blog postings about other research we find interesting.
 I wrote these during my time as the AAAS Mass Media Fellow for the Chicago Tribune. These are a few of my favorite pieces. I've directly linked those still available on the Tribune's website. Otherwise, all articles are available as PDFs.
