I tell stories about science.

You’ve reached the home page of Alan Dove. I’m a science journalist, and also co-host the top-ranked science podcast “This Week in Virology.” Take a look at the “About” page if you want more information on my background.

This site hosts an ongoing series of reviews, plus essays about science, journalism, and everything in between. If you’d prefer a more traditional blog, full of all the side projects and distractions that other people would put on social media, try this.
