Biography
As a freelance health and science journalist, I have experience in news, features and B2B writing for both specialist and non-specialist national publications. I have a strong analytical background, with a PhD in environmental science and extensive research skills. Having worked in documentary production for the BBC, I am very competent in producing and editing digital content to support written articles.
I have covered industry news but I am looking to move away from that.

By Carolyn Scott Verified, Helen Quinn| Nursing in Practice Verified People from disadvantaged backgrounds are more likely to experience prolonged Covid-19 symptoms, a new study has found. Researchers at King’s College London (KCL) found that pre-existing social inequalities affect recovery from Covid-19. Specifically, social factors such as education level, financial stability, and the areas where people live significantly influenced whether individuals reported recovery from the virus more than a year after infection.
By Helen Quinn, Beth Gault Verified| Healthcare Leader Verified A study found that smoking rates in the North of England have declined faster than in other regions, narrowing the gap in smoking prevalence across the country. Researchers at University College London (UCL) say that smoking rates in the North are now as low as in the South. They found that regions such as the North East, which had ‘sustained tobacco control activity’ programmes encouraging people to quit, saw the greatest reductions in smoking. The findings are published in Addiction.
By Helen Quinn| Hospital Healthcare Europe Verified Women aged 50 or older, who are three years post-breast cancer diagnosis and cancer-free, show non-inferior results when given less than annual mammography compared to annual screening, a new study has revealed. Less frequent breast cancer screenings were found to be equally effective in terms of breast cancer-specific survival, recurrence-free interval and overall survival. These findings suggest that leaving more time between mammograms could be a suitable option for this group of women.
