Science, She Wrote is a blog/YouTube channel which explores human biology from vaginas to vampires, beauty to mental health, through blog posts, YouTube videos, DIYs, crafting, and recipes. 

Series on Science, She Wrote will include  ‘Science on the Screen’ – a look at the representation of science in the media and Hollywood, and the science in movies and television, and ‘Mythology Biology’ (because we all want to know if zombies could exist!!). I’m also an avid attempter of crafts, and so Science, She Wrote will seek to combine science and crafts, because why not? 

The main aim of Science, She Wrote is to provide free education on the Human Body and Health; we all have one body and I believe that understanding our bodies can help us to look after ourselves better, both physically and mentally, and can help us to be more accepting of our bodies and be more comfortable in our own skin.

Finally, I would like Science, She Wrote to be an inspiration to anybody and everybody who loves science to be inspired to pursue science, whether that be recreationally, academically, or otherwise.

I hope you will join me on this adventure!

Career History

Lecturer in Applied Medical Sciences (2016-present)

I current lecture at Swansea University Medical School (Wales, UK) on a variety of topics including Human Physiology, Human Anatomy, and Communicating Medical Sciences. If you want to know more, you can visit my staff profile page

PhD, Cancer Research (2017)

I took some plain old yeast (like that you use to bake bread) and used it to help us learn more about how cells work. Why? The more we know about how cells work, the better we can treat diseases such as cancer! If you want to know more you can watch this video of me presenting my research. I do the YMCA and say ‘nipple tassels’. Because.

Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education (2014)

The PGCertHE (it’s a bit quicker to abbreviate it!) is a teaching qualification. I researched how to improve student engagement and information fluency.

Biomedical Science, BSc (2010)

You go to the hospital or your doctor’s surgery and they take a sample from you – maybe its a blood sample, a cervical smear, a tissue biopsy, or a stool sample (that’s poo!). Biomedical Scientists are specialists trained to process these samples to help doctors figure out what is wrong, and how to fix it. I qualified as a registered Biomedical Scientist with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), but decided to take another route in my career.
