Prior work
Before joining MIT Technology Review, I worked as a freelance magazine editor; a features editor at Nature; and as the semiconductors editor at the technology magazine IEEE Spectrum.
My first journalism job was at the London-headquartered science magazine New Scientist, where I reported on general relativity, galactic cannibalism, lunar lava tubes, and myriad other topics in space, physics, and astronomy out of the magazine's office in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
I have a background in physics and am a graduate of the Science Communication Program at the University of California, Santa Cruz. I was also a AAAS Mass Media Science & Engineering Fellow. If you're interested in applying to either program and want to hear an alum's perspective, I'm always happy to chat. You can reach out via my non-TR e-mail address (rcourtland -at- nasw.org).
