About Nate Eisenmann

I\'m driven by a passion for fusing science with effective communication. I graduated from Drake University in Iowa with degrees in multimedia journalism and biochemistry, cell, and molecular biology. I knew I didn\'t see myself in a career in research or medicine, but I wanted to be close to both. Through articles, visuals, and social media, I strive to make complex topics in science and health accessible to all. As Science Communications Associate at Calico Life Sciences in South San Francisco, I help tell important stories about our science and scientists. I support both internal and external communications for the organization. I previously spent two summers in Science Communications and in Research Communications at Genentech, the world\'s first biotech company. I promoted the world-class science and scientists in the Research and Development organization through social media, newsletters, and podcasts. Prior to that, I worked in Research and Development Communications at Corteva Agriscience, where I crafted human-centered stories about Corteva\'s innovative and sustainable products. In college, I served as Editor-in-Chief of Drake Mag, which was recognized nationally as Best Feature Magazine by the College Media Association. I had the privilege of leading the team that produced top-tier work to engage our diverse readership. Guiding our student-run publication was an invaluable experience which reinforced the importance of clarity and empathy in storytelling. I\'m grateful for the opportunity to connect. I look forward to exploring ways where my blend of scientific curiosity, communication skills, and a track record of award-winning work can contribute deeper understanding and appreciation of science in everyday life.
