International News Coverage
I’m Dr. R. Craig Stillwell, a scientist, writer, and consultant with a Ph.D. in Entomology and over 15 years of experience in bioinformatics, data science, and scientific communications.
My career highlights include:
• Leading data analytics for the COVID-19 Home Test Kit Mission, reporting directly to the White House.
• Authoring 20+ peer-reviewed publications in genetics, public health, and evolutionary biology.
• Securing millions in grant funding through compelling, data-backed proposals.
I specialize in translating complex ideas into actionable insights. Whether it’s crafting grant proposals, refining manuscripts, or providing strategic consulting, I help individuals and organizations achieve measurable results.
