Leah Elson is an academically-published clinical development scientist, public science communicator, and non-fiction author. Her research career in human medicine has included subject matter in the fields of orthopedics, oncology, novel tech, and neuroscience. Leah is the author and illustrator of the highly-anticipated book, There Are (No) Stupid Questions... in Science (due 2023), a wryly written compendium of delightfully bizarre, oftentimes gross, and occasionally poignant answers to the curious scientific questions of adults. The professional pinnacle of her career was shooting the furthest spitball among her research colleagues. She owns two pit bulls, a cumbersomely large reflection telescope, and 47 houseplants.
