Science Speaker
Dr Judy is a popular Science Speaker and Writer. She directed Genetics laboratories for 25 years before she moved to the University of South Australia to teach PhD students how best to write and speak about their work.
Judy talks on many topics related to GENES and GENETICS but because her laboratories specialised in studies of NATURAL FERTILITY and CANCER/LEUKEMIA, she has a strong interest and knowledge of these topics.
Judy also has a major interest in AGEING – especially HOW and WHY we must age and HOW we can reduce the negative side-effects. Ageing underlies many other health problems and Judy’s talks address critical issues that are frequently overlooked. Judy has written and spoken extensively about ALL these topics and is happy to talk to Businesses, Organisations and Schools on the topics they choose.
(Find out more about these and audience reactions on the ‘Ask Dr Judy to Speak‘ page).
Invite Dr Judy to speak to your organisation
Would your organisation or school audience like to learn more about Genes and Genetics or a related topic? Dr Judy can be booked for in person or online talks. Please just fill out the Contact Form below.
You might want to start at the beginning and learn about genes and chromosomes and (say) their roles in Ageing and/or Cancer? Alternatively, you might represent a group whose members are affected by a particular genetic syndrome and be looking for an empathetic speaker, who can explain this more simply?
Are you looking for an entertaining Speaker?
If your organization needs a lively and entertaining speaker, please read about her talks and the reviews on the page (link above) ‘Ask Dr Judy to Speak‘. Judy mostly talks about health related topics but is happy to talk about other topics such as her travels as a scientist – especially her trip to Chernobyl, five years after the accident!
On other topics! Here is a link to a recent talk Judy gave on Zoom on how to ‘Reduce stress and its consequences‘. This session was thwart with technical issues so definitely not as good as face-to-face! But it will give you an idea of how well Judy explains complex issues.
Expert Witness for Relevant Legal Cases
Over many years, Dr Judy has acted as an Expert Witness in cases that are relevant to her expertise. Some of these have been related to specific genes – especially those causing disability and/or early death in children. Many have been related to cases where chemical and/or radiation toxicity has been suspected as the cause of illness – especially Cancer, disability and/or death while many others have been related to Occupational Health and Safety.
If you are conducting a legal case where you need an Expert in either Genetics or Chemical Toxicity (or similar), please contact Dr Judy Ford (form at the bottom of the page) to discuss whether she is able to help you.
Books & Writing
Judy has written several books that include WHY WE AGE and STOP CANCER IN ITS TRACKS. These and her other books are available on her Amazon site. Most of Judy’s writing is based partly on her own published research as well as other world data and research.
Judy’s special interests are in the MECHANISMS/CHANGES IN GENES AND CHROMOSOMES that underlie AGEING. Furthermore, because ageing underlies many health problems she has extensively studied how these changes also affect FERTILITY, MISCARRIAGE and CANCER.
