Kirsten Sanford, Ph.D.

“Where scientific rigor meets the infrastructure of public trust.”
— Kirsten Sanford, Ph.D.A rare combination of science, media, and institutional leadership
Doctoral Fluency
A Ph.D. in Molecular, Cellular & Integrative Physiology means she speaks the language of the researchers she trains. Her doctoral work in learning and memory at UC Davis gives her fluency across scientific disciplines that grounds every engagement in real scientific practice.
Media Authority
This Week in Science has been in continuous production since 1999, predating the invention of podcasting. Twenty-six years of sustained science media operation — not a credential, but a body of work that demonstrates what effective science communication looks like over time.
Institutional Acumen
She designed and built the ASC Science Talk conference infrastructure from scratch — architecture, platform, live production, volunteer training, speaker programming, post-event metrics. She builds programs that institutions can sustain independently.
