The editors of this year’s The Best American Science and Nature Writing anthology—and special guest journalists and writers—will take the virtual stage to reflect on their favorite stories from last year, the biggest news from this year in science, and the future of scientific discovery and journalism.

On the virtual stage will be:

• Carl Zimmer is the author of many science books, including Life’s Edge: The Search of What it Means to Be Alive and She Has Her Mother’s Laugh. He’s also the guest editor of The Best American Science and Nature Writing 2023, and is based in New York, NY.
• Jaime Green is a science writer and author of The Possibility of Life: Science, Imagination, and Our Quest for Kinship in the Cosmos. She is also the series editor of The Best American Science and Nature Writing 2023, and is based in Connecticut.
• Marion Renault is a health and science writer based in Grenoble, France. Her essay, A French Village’s Radical Vision of a Good Life with Alzheimer’s, is featured in The Best American Science and Nature Writing 2023.
• Maryn McKenna is a senior writer at Wired, a senior fellow at Emory University’s Center for the Study of Human Health, and the author of many books, including Big Chicken, Superbug, and Beating Back the Devil. Her essay, The Provincetown Breakthrough, is featured in The Best American Science and Nature Writing 2023

Come with your queries and wonderings—we’ll be taking your questions via the livestream comments.
