About Stella
Stella Mayerhoff is a science communicator interested in animals, psychology, and human-animal connections.
Stella has written for Georgia State’s College of Arts & Sciences, Georgia State University Research Magazine, and Science ATL. She is currently a Taylor/Blakeslee Fellow pursuing a master’s degree in Science Communication at the University of California, Santa Cruz.
As a scientist, Stella traveled the world—from Puerto Rico to the Democratic Republic of Congo—studying various primate species. She now draws inspiration from her time in the field, writing to share the sense of adventure and real-world impact that science offers.
When she’s not chasing a story, Stella enjoys spending her time with her cat, TBD, who owes his perfectly odd name to a moment of writer’s block.
