Malmesbury (pseudonym)
Biography
Born in France during peak millennial times, Malmesbury went through a chaotic academic trajectory across various biology-adjacent fields. After a Ph.D. in biophysics in Paris, he now lives on the East Coast of America, where he studies evolution, robotics, and the mores of the Nacirema. His writing project is to explore the hidden mechanisms that underpin trivial aspects of our daily lives.
