Nancy Bazilchuk
Background and activities
I'm an English-speaking science writer with an 80% position at NTNU's Communication Division. I mainly write English-language news for Norwegian SciTech News, the online research magazine published by NTNU and SINTEF, Scandinavia's largest independent research institute. In 2021, I started hosting NTNU's English-language podcast, called 63 Degrees North.
In my free time I work as a freelance science journalist, mostly for publications in the US. You can see a selection of my work at contently.com.
