About the Featured Reader
Viraj Muthye is an Indian poet, science communicator, and scientist.

All of his poems have one goal – to start a conversation. Viraj published a book of poems in English in India over 12 years ago and is currently working on his second book. He is currently working as a bioinformatician at the Alberta children’s hospital and is the founder of the creative science alliance.
