Monthly newsletter

Follow my explorations

To share my experiments, I write a monthly newsletter, called my 🔭 Laboratory Logbook.

I send this letter to my gracious readers at the start of each month to tell them about my work in progress, my observations, my — hopefully elegant — experiments.

If you like to follow my explorations, then I invite you to subscribe below :)

Free letter, monthly, 200+ subscribers, unsubscribe in 2 clicks. Of course, I don't share your e-mail address. I also write the newsletter in French if you prefer.

Are you hesitating? Then, why not have a look at my previous newsletters, or check my reader’s testimonials!
