About The Everyday Biologist

The Everyday Biologist is a science publication for curious readers: not a textbook, and not a news dump. Each piece starts from a question you might actually ask (why coffee sends you to the bathroom, why muscles ache the day after a workout) and answers it with primary research, written in plain language.

How the site is organized

The homepage follows a journal-style layout: one lead story, a short strip of recent pieces, then denser sections by topic. Articles are filed under five fields (Physiology, Gastronomy, Kinesiology, Nutrition Science, and Evolutionary Biology) so you can browse by discipline or read across them. Category labels are typographic (not color-coded badges); the writing and structure do the work of signaling what each piece is about.

Who's writing this

I'm Milos Ristovic. I hold a BSc Honours in Biology from Concordia University and completed graduate research at the University of Victoria. My research background is in molecular and developmental biology, including work on 3'UTR gene regulation, mutant mouse model generation, and bioinformatics analysis of regulatory DNA elements.

How accuracy works here

Articles that make specific scientific claims link to primary or peer-reviewed sources in a references list at the bottom of the post. If you ever spot something that's stated imprecisely or out of date, I'd genuinely like to know. Get in touch and I'll correct it.
