Jeremy Singer-Vine
Hello, there. My name is Jeremy. I'm a journalist and computer programmer based in New York City, where I work as BuzzFeed's data editor. I'm also a co-organizer of Hacks/Hackers NYC.
Previously, I worked at The Wall Street Journal. One neat thing: Waste Lands, a series I worked on with John Emshwiller, was named a 2014 Pulitzer Prize finalist for national reporting.
Before the WSJ, I worked for Slate magazine, where I developed data-driven journalism projects, edited the magazine's environmental coverage, and wrote for the "Explainer" column. One neat thing: I still get a few emails per year about my analysis of Jeopardy! clues and answers.
May 2009 through November 2010, I also wrote the "Research Report", a biweekly Wall Street Journal column about recent medical studies. One neat thing: In one study, scientists rubbed capsaicin — the chemical compound that makes spicy peppers spicy — on a bunch of mice's stomachs, to see if it helped them recover from scientist-induced heart attacks. (It did.)
