Thanks for visiting my Tumblr. I’m Ivan Oransky, the executive editor of Reuters Health. I teach medical journalism at New York University’s Science, Health, and Environmental Reporting Program, and I’m the treasurer of the Association of Health Care Journalists. The views here do not necessarily represent those of any of those organizations.

You can reach me at ivan-oransky [at] erols.com.

In the past, I’ve been managing editor, online, of Scientific American, deputy editor of The Scientist, and editor-in-chief of the now-defunct Praxis Post. For three years, I taught in the health and medicine track at the City University of New York’s Graduate School of Journalism.

I earned my bachelor’s at Harvard, where I was executive editor of The Harvard Crimson, and my MD at the New York University of School of Medicine, where I hold an appointment as clinical assistant professor of medicine.
