Hi, I am Dr. Claudio Butticè, Pharm.D., a clinical and hospital pharmacist who worked for several large public hospitals in Southern Italy, as well as for the humanitarian NGO Emergency.

I am eagerly editing both the Italian and US Wikipedia on all those topics that pertain my field of specialization such as medicine, pharmacology, health, nutrition and herbal medicine. I also like to delve into other fields I'm passionate about like history, video gaming, melee weapons and sociology. I think that scientific knowledge is the foundation for the evolution of human race, and I want to provide my contribution to humanity by writing as much as I can. Being a non-native English speaker, feel free to edit and proofread everything I write. I will deeply thank anyone who does that!

You can browse some of my writings on my personal Academia.edu page, or look at my Linkedin resume if you're interested in hiring me. I'm always interested in new projects especially regarding medical textbooks and encyclopedias.

Today, I am an accomplished medical writer who wrote as an author in several encyclopedias, including The SAGE Encyclopedia of Cancer and Society (2015), The SAGE Encyclopedia of World Poverty (2015), and other sociology and anthropology reference textbooks. I'm also the author of fantasy literature and poetry books in Italy, working as a freelancer scientific consultant and medical writer for several international firms. I hold a Master’s degree in Pharmacy from the University of Palermo.
