Paralelno sa svojim naučnim istraživanjima, dugi niz godina se bavim književnim radom i pisanjem eseja o nauci i društvu. Razumevanje veze između nauke i društva je jedan od osnovnih preduslova za poboljšanje sveta u kom živimo. Zbog toga se u svojim esejima osvrćem na mnogobrojne probleme sa kojima se susreću različita društva u kontekstu naučnih istraživanja i edukacije. Odgovore na aktuelne probleme tražim u razgovorima sa inspirativnim ljudima različitih profila - od dobitnika Nobelove nagrade, Berija Beriša, slavne kanadske biografkinje Rozmari Saliven, pa do priča sa članovima afričkih i aboridžinskih plemena. Poslednjih godina, mnoge od tih priča objavljene su u ilustrovanom časopisu za popularizaciju nauke "Elementi". Neke od Izabranih tekstova možete pronaći na linkovima sa ove stranice.
Pored naučno i društveno angažovanih tekstova, objavljujem poeziju i kratke priče. U izdanju izdavačke kuće KOV, objavio sam zbirku poezije "Simetrija, spontano narušena".
