About me

Hi! My name is Gieljan de Vries and I've been writing about science for 20 years now. As a journalist and communicator I tell engaging stories about even the most complex research topics. And I help scientists explain the importance of their work. As long as there's a good story in there.

About me

Hi! My name is Gieljan de Vries and I've been writing about science for 20 years now. As a journalist and communicator I tell engaging stories about even the most complex research topics. And I help scientists explain the importance of their work. As long as there's a good story in there.

My topics

Physics, astronomy, quantum and nuclear. I enjoy far out topics like particle physics, relativity, teleportation, the end of the universe and interstellar nuclear propulsion.

What I do

Interview, write as a journalist or on behalf of a client, spin a tale on stage. Press contact and media training. Advise on texts and presentations.

What can I do for you?

Science journalist

As a freelance journalist I write about surprising news in science and the science behind the news. Find me online and in popular science magazines.

Science writer

Want to spotlight your research with an attractive article? I can help you with press releases, news items, interviews and background articles.

Communication advisor

As communication advisor I help scientists get their point across. I write, edit and give media training, and I support grant applications and institute evaluations.

@asymptoticfrdm Ik blijf er naar kijken. Waarom zijn sommige lijnen dikker dan andere? Waarom lijken die lijnen a en b uit het niets te komen? Waarom lopen sommige lijnen krom? Enzovoorts. (Mazzel trouwens dat ze toen geen ballonnen neerhaalden.)

@asymptoticfrdm: Dit is het plaatje van een fotografische emulsie blootgesteld aan kosmische stralen op een hoogte van 70.000 voet m.b.v. een ballon. Australië, 1950. Heel belangrijke ontdekking, die van het Lambda deeltje, sporen a en b. Hopper, Biswas. Adembenemend! https://t.co/fTELKXCja4
