On my mind

My writing is focused on helping people better understand themselves and one another through the power of science. My most popular talks include "Pleased to Meet Me" (why we do the things we do) and "The Monster Mash" (the science behind monster legends). I am passionate about making science and medicine entertaining and fun for all ages!

‍

Why I'm excited to talk

I love sharing jaw-dropping discoveries and fascinating insights into human behavior - and would love to hear yours!

Let's talk science!

Where I've written

Pleased to Meet Me

Genes, Germs, and the Curious Forces That Make Us Who We Are

‍

Why are you attracted to a certain "type?" Why are you a morning person? Why do you vote the way you do? From a witty new voice in popular science comes a clever, life-changing look at what makes you you.
‍

‍
"I can't believe I just said that." "What possessed me to do that?" "What's wrong with me?" We're constantly seeking answers to these fundamental human questions, and now, science has the answers. The foods we enjoy, the people we love, the emotions we feel, and the beliefs we hold can all be traced back to our DNA, germs, and environment. This witty, colloquial book is popular science at its best, describing in everyday language how genetics, epigenetics, microbiology, and psychology work together to influence our personality and actions. Mixing cutting-edge research and relatable humor, Pleased to Meet Me is filled with fascinating insights that shine a light on who we really are--and how we might become our best selves.

‍

“In equal parts approachable and mind-blowing. Sullivan gives us a whistle-stop tour of the myriad factors that make you who you are”

—David Eagleman, host of PBS’s The Brain with David Eagleman
