Autorenporträt
Kaylon Bruner Tran, PhD is best known for her medical research studies examining endometriosis and the generational effects of environmental toxicant exposure. For more than two decades, Kaylon served as the primary writer of scientific documents emanating from the Women's Reproductive Health Research Center at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee, USA. In 2021, she wrote her first novel, Time Intertwined.Kaylon Bruner Tran has always loved to write, but becoming a novelist was never on her bucket list. When she took a creative writing class in high school, she found she had a knack for writing non-fiction. She interviewed classmates and enjoyed putting their stories on paper. Kaylon was excited when the time came to write the required senior English paper. She started her research early and finished her paper well before the deadline. A couple of her classmates were less enthusiastic about the project and turned to Kaylon for help. In the end, she wrote two senior papers in addition to her own (please don't tell Ms. Ammons!). When Kaylon's mediocre math skills put her dream of becoming an astronaut out of reach, she pursued a career in medical research instead. Kaylon received her PhD in Reproductive Pathology from Vanderbilt University in 1995 and spent 30 years investigating the causes and potential treatments of reproductive diseases. Reflecting her long-standing love of writing, Kaylon gladly took on the added responsibility of writing the majority of scientific documents emanating from Vanderbilt's Women's Reproductive Health Research Center. In 2021, curious about their genealogy, Kaylon and her family decided to take DNA tests. That decision led to the unexpected finding of a previously unknown relative. Kaylon was fascinated by her new relative's story and used it as the inspiration for her first novel, Time Intertwined. The historical fiction novel drew heavily on Kaylon's ability to present factual information in a compelling manner as she crafted an emotional family saga against the backdrop of the Vietnam War. She found the creative freedom of weaving a fictional story with historical events addictive, and her first book was soon followed by several more. Now, after three decades in the laboratory, Kaylon has decided to hang up her lab coat and spend more time with her keyboard.
