Hello! I’m Leonie Mercedes, a science writer and copy editor based in London.
I write about engineering innovation and design, technology, sustainability and materials science for Ingenia, and have written about wildlife for Atlas Obscura and DK. I also write science-themed riddles for New Scientist. See some of my work here.
Subscribers to my nerdy newsletter Science, Please receive a round-up of 10 weird and amazing things I learnt in the previous seven days. See the latest edition here.
I’m also a NCTJ-trained sub editor, and have cleaned up or checked copy for clients including Econsultancy, the British Red Cross and UCL.
