Operates a Substack titled 'Science From The Fringe' 

Bhattacharya operates a Substack account titled "Science From The Fringe" alongside Bryce Nickels, a professor of genetics at Rutgers University.

Established in September for the purpose of engaging in "open, respectful dialogue on critical issues in science, health policy, biosafety, and bioethics" through "engaging interviews, thoughtful discussions, and in-depth analysis," the account features episodes of a podcast they co-host called "Can I Respond to That Please?" and essays written by one or both men.

Additional content on the website includes one-on-one conversations between Bhattacharya and a wide variety of guests, including filmmakers, fellow healthcare experts, economists, scientists, Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, R-Iowa, journalists, Florida's Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis and the former president of the Czech Republic as well as an archived discussion with a fellow Stanford professor.
