About
1. ”How can science look more like us?”
2. ”How are scientists shaped by what happens outside of the lab?”
3. ”How do people respond to the changing world through science?”
We do so through an award-winning collection of original personal essays, longform science features, and resources for early-career science professionals. We also send out a twice-monthly newsletter curating the best science stories in the American South and beyond. Our writers have gone on to win awards such as the National Academies Eric and Wendy Schmidt Awards for Excellence in Science Communications, AAAS Mass Media Fellowships, and the National Association of Science Writers Diversity Reporting Grant.
The Xylom is part of the Institute for Nonprofit News Network, Covering Climate Now, and Local Independent Online News (LION) Publishers.
