Dr. Anna Bramucci

I am a strategic communications professional with expertise in research storytelling, digital communications, editorial content, and stakeholder engagement. My background combines academic research in ecology, microbiology, and genomics with professional experience translating complex research and organizational priorities into clear, engaging communications for public, academic, media, and stakeholder audiences.

Most recently, I have led communications and strategic engagement for the Earth BioGenome Project Secretariat at Canada's Michael Smith Genome Sciences Centre. In this role, I develop website content, newsletters, executive communications, reports, presentations, and digital campaigns that support visibility, engagement, and collaboration across a global network of more than 60 genomics initiatives. My work focuses on transforming complex scientific information into accessible stories that inform, engage, and inspire diverse audiences.

Earlier in my career, I conducted postdoctoral and research associate work in the Seymour Lab in Sydney, Australia, studying marine microbiomes and microbial ecology. I hold a PhD in Ecology and an MSc in Microbiology and Biotechnology from the University of Alberta. My research explored microbial communities in sub-glacial lakes in the southwest Yukon and the permanently ice-covered lakes of Antarctica's Dry Valleys.

I am interested in roles that bring together communications strategy, research storytelling, editorial leadership, and stakeholder engagement to help organizations communicate complex ideas with clarity, credibility, and impact.
