Ryan Dollard

Ryan Dollard writes and presents “Technology Update,” RT’s monthly guide to all that’s new in the world of Science and Technology.

On the programme, Ryan covers everything from medical advances to breakthroughs in alternative energy and new gadgets for fun and games.

Before presenting the show, Ryan was a general-assignment news correspondent for the channel. He says that one of the most memorable events in his reporting career was being the only TV reporter to be allowed inside the Penza Doomsday cult’s underground cave before it was blown up.

Ryan’s RT career began as a sports reporter. His professional life before joining RT’s team worked along similar lines:

“I cut my TV teeth in England on ITV regional news as a correspondent and sports presenter”.

Ryan has an MA in Literature from Cambridge University. Away from his gizmo-filled professional life, Ryan enjoys reading and is an avid fan of rugby, football and cricket.
