Information in the 21st century - A. G. Delgado
Years of hard work within investigative journalism (online, print and TV ), scientific research and academics (BA and BSc) have provided me with a professional background in biomedicine, biophysics, sociology, current affairs, international relations, security, AI (artificial inteligence), robotics, and new technologies.
One of my aims is to be a bridge between the academic community and the rest of society, and writing for all audiences is a perfect tool to comply with such target.
It is by sharing knowledge and maintaining human ethos that we can contribute to shape evolution.
