Hi! I am Mariana, a biomedical and health freelance writer.
I am a biomedical researcher with 15+ years of experience.
I want to help you communicate scientific data in a concise and friendly way.
What can I do for you
I can help you communicate, improve sales, increase awareness, or enhance your reputation.
How I do it? I research your topic with the rigour and passion of a scientist. Besides, I use copywriting techniques to write texts or copy that keeps your reader informed and motivated.
How it all started
2001, September 11. I was at the Spanish embassy in Asunción, Paraguay under heavy police presence.
The day before, I opened an envelope (yes, standard post): I won a scholarship for a Master in Immunology at the University of Barcelona.
The world changed that day. And so did my life.
A bit about my scientific career and other things
In Barcelona, I finished a Master in Immunology, a PhD in molecular biology, took part in international congresses, and worked with incredibly talented and motivated scientists.
Moreover, I also met my husband, made friends for life and embraced a welcoming and open-minded culture.
In 2010, with smartphones on the rise, life as we knew it, changed.
And so did my life. Again.
With our 12-year-old Alfa Romeo packed with everything we had included our two cats, we left Barcelona and moved to Munich.
My husband bought his first iPhone, and I continued my scientific career.
As a postdoc, I worked with genetic models of pancreatic cancer.
Furthermore, it thrilled me to work as an external expert for the European Commission.
I also enjoyed working as a peer reviewer for PlosOne magazine.
How I relaunched my scientific career as a biomedical and health freelance writer
I enjoyed working long hours and days in the lab, but I was always delighted to find time between experiments to read and research.
After a maternity leave that I will never regret, I hung up my lab coat and turned to what I was longing for: reading and writing.
It makes me very happy to have dedicated so many years to basic science.
Training in biomedical and health writing
I had spent significant time during my scientific education in reading and reporting.
I am a member of EMWA (European Medical Writers Association) and AERTeM (Asociación Española de Redactores de Textos Médicos).
You can find out my thoughts about medical writing, copywriting and science on my blog.
I would love to hear about your projects.
This is my offer to you: with more than 15 years of international scientific experience plus training in copywriting, I can write content for you that will be both scientifically reliable and easy to understand.
