Gary Robbins covers science and higher education at The San Diego Union-Tribune. His topics range from COVID-19 to the evolution of climate change to emerging ways to monitor and explain wildfires, earthquakes, and severe weather. Melissa T. Miller is the science and technology writer at Nerdist. She also hosts "science of" panels at pop culture conventions where she connects the wonders of science to fictional storytelling. Jonathan Wosen is STAT’s West Coast biotech & life sciences reporter, based in his hometown of San Diego. Jonathan holds a doctorate in immunology from Stanford and a master’s in science communication from UC Santa Cruz.
