Lennard Bonapart, MSc
Medical journalist in the Netherlands for healthcare and science
A medical story needs to be accurate and compelling. I combine more than twenty years of journalistic experience with a background in medical biology, writing for media, publishers and healthcare organisations.

Complex evidence told clearly and humanely
I interview physicians, researchers, executives and patients about developments that matter. The science receives the space it deserves while the story remains accessible and concrete.
My work ranges from news interviews and congress reporting to in-depth articles, profiles and long reads. Each piece is structured around a clear editorial question and written for its intended audience.
In-depth articles
Medical and scientific subjects explained with context, source checking and journalistic rigour.
Long reads and features
Long-form work for magazines, professional media and organisations that want to explore a subject thoroughly.
Approach
From research question to publication-ready story
Before starting, I clarify the audience, central question and editorial form. I then study the sources, prepare interviews carefully and find the line that carries the story.
Clients receive a carefully written, fact-checkable and publication-ready text. When appropriate, I collaborate with editors, photographers and designers.
For larger multidisciplinary productions, I work through Bonapart Media.
