About

I am Mirella Sidro, a freelance historical researcher and narrative writer with an academic background in Egyptology, Coptology, and the history of medicine. I combine source-based historical research with journalistic storytelling to illuminate the past and how it informs our future.

I translate complex academic knowledge into clear, engaging narratives for documentaries, games, and cultural formats. My work focuses on antiquity, medical and scientific knowledge, ethical thought, and long-term cultural continuities, with an emphasis on sustainability, mobility, and technological transformation as historical and cultural contexts.
