She has spent more than 15 years working in science journalism and communication, including over a decade at Cancer Research UK, where she co-founded the charity's award winning Science Blog, and acted as a principal national and international media spokesperson. Kat is the founder and and creative director of First Create The Media, a communications strategy and content agency specialising in life sciences.
