Biography
Publisher of Doug Levy's COVID-19 Top Stories newsletter https://douglevy.substack.com; award-winning science, technology and health care journalist and occasional food/wine/travel blogger. Peabody-award winning investigative reporter. Former chief communications officer at Columbia University Irving Medical Center in New York, NY. Previous jobs included communications director at UCSF School of Medicine; health reporter for USA Today; technology reporter for USA Today; science editor at UPI. Also advises government and other scientists on how to better communicate about science to the public. A true early adopter, Doug still has his Osborne-1 computer and remembers his CompuServe ID. He was the first USA Today reporter with an email address and the first to use a desktop computer instead of a "dumb" terminal attached to the newspaper's mainframe system. At Columbia, Doug built a communications team that turned science news into compelling web and social media content and award-winning videos. The team won an award for Best Digital from the Association of American Medical Colleges.
