Science writer with a Bachelor of Science in physics and a PhD in biophysics. Have researched distant stars, extremophiles and the fine-tuned architecture of proteins. Along the way I clocked many midnights at telescopes, lab benches, and the occasional particle accelerator. I left all that for the writing life, and have since written about all manner of curious things from botany and ancient chemistry to quantum physics and modern biomaterials. My work has appeared in COSMOS magazine, Australian Geographic online and the Best Australian Science Writing anthologies for 2015, 2016 and 2018. I was runner up for the UNSW Bragg Press Prize for Science Writing 2016. Follow me on Twitter @fmmcmillan
