About Dr Nancy Jennings and Dotmoth
After 11 years of carrying out my own postdoctoral research alongside providing editorial and biostatistical services, I expanded my freelance work and set up Dotmoth to support other scientists in early 2007. I now work entirely freelance from my home in rural North Somerset, UK. The photo above is the view from my office window.
My business is named after the dot moth Melanchra persicariae, a small, but unmistakable moth found as an adult from late June to August in the UK. It is a Noctuid moth, which means it has evolved ears capable of hearing the ultrasound echolocation calls of its predators, bats.
