Velocity Hughes

I’m a research strategist and communicator with experience spanning microbiology, analytical chemistry, biophysics, neuroscience, and medicine. As a scientific consultant, I bring fresh enthusiasm and an outside perspective to your project, offering hands-on help with project management, grant writing, and outreach.

I work internationally within the academic, healthcare and industrial sectors, and am especially interested in the intersections of science, culture and policy.

Short CV

WHAT TO EXPECT

Ideas come to life when they become accessible to their receiver, whether it's a funding agency, fellow specialist, or lay audience. If you have an idea but need help implementing its vision, I can help with that, from brainstorming, to securing funds, to presenting results.

Cornerstones of my approach:

Curiosity and enthusiasm

Broad knowledge base and technical skillset

Critical thinking and attention to detail

Clarity of communication

I thrive in diverse work environments, in exploring new disciplines and in overcoming challenges. I maintain strict standards of confidentiality on all intellectual property I am tasked with.

PRICING

I offer a first consultation for free, to discuss your project-specific needs. Following that, my standard consultancy fee is 900 SEK per hour (excluding sales taxes and travel costs for in-person meetings).

For regular consultancy services and for early-stage professionals, I'm open to negotiating customizable fee structures.
