Non-fiction.
In a bit of a departure from fiction and comedy, and something that she doesn’t generally mention, she sort of technically has a PhD in Environmental Forensic Science. Her research looked at how lots of the things that we think of as comprising ‘the environment’ - mud, water, and the tiny, grotesque creatures which live in damp places - can be used as forensic evidence.
Magazines
Emma has written and edited non-fiction content for SEISMA Magazine, a publication which focuses on the intersection between the arts and the sciences.
Journal Articles (technical)
She has co-authored a number of papers on Forensic Techniques - including a bit of research on how algae stick to shoes, and what algorithms might be best suited for drawing outlines around fluorescent powder in photographs.
Journal Articles (conceptual)
She has also co-authored a paper analysing the UK’s spending on Forensic Science research between 2009-2018, which is a rather depressing read.
