Jonathan Lambert, a reporter covering biological sciences at Science News in Washington, has left to join a news startup focusing on public health and how it connects to everything from the biodiversity crisis to infrastructure and geopolitics.
Lambert was a 2018 AAAS Mass Media Fellow at The Dallas Morning News and his work has also appeared in Quanta Magazine, NPR, Nature News, Scientific American, and Wired. He was also an assistant producer at Brains On, a science podcast for kids from American Public Media.
There, he also wrote and produced segments of episodes, conducted interviews with scientists, edited audio and pitched ideas.
The new startup publication is launched by Laura McGann, former politics editor of Vox.com and Politico, and Mark Bauman, previously with the National Geographic and ABC News.
