Brief Biographical Sketch:

Leslie Todd has worked in medical communications for 18 years in the Bay Area and has publications in oncology, dermatology, urology, and infectious disease. Her philosophy is to make medical writing accessible to the largest number of readers. Good writing is good writing whether it is a medical paper, a computer manual or an art history paper. My undergraduate work was in biochemistry, and my graduate work was in art history.
