Dr. Maya Patel

PhD in Particle Physics from Imperial College London, followed by five years at CERN working on detector calibration. Left the lab to write full-time after realizing she spent more hours explaining her research to friends than actually running it. Has reported from accelerator facilities, telescope arrays, and chemistry labs on four continents. Treats every discovery as a story that deserves an audience beyond the people who made it.
