About Me
- Ana Gerschenfeld
- I was born in Buenos Aires in 1954, where I grew up, moving in my early teens to Boston with my parents and brother, and then to Paris. I studied math and statistics at the Université de Paris and started my career in the media in that city in the early 80’s, first as a science journalist for Pour la Science, the French edition of Scientific American, and then for the French science magazine La Recherche. In 1989, I moved to Portugal (where I married) and started working at the science desk of the newly-founded daily newspaper PÚBLICO in Lisbon, which I left in June 2016. In the mid-90’s, I was instrumental to the creation of the newspaper’s website, which is today the most influential media site in Portugal. In parallel to my journalistic career, I also worked as a translator. In 1993, I won the national prize of the Société Française de Traducteurs for my translation of Gerald Edelman’s Bright Air, Brilliant Fire for the Editions Odile Jacob (Paris). I am currently working, since June 15th, 2016, as a science writer for the Research Division of the Champalimaud Centre for the Unknown, in Lisbon. I live in Lisbon with my husband and our two children.
