About Me

Hi, I’m Gillian! I recently completed my MSc in Clinical Neuroscience at UCL, where my thesis focused on brain-age biomarker, neuroimaging, and the biology of ageing and neurodegeneration. I am interested in how data, neuroscience, and emerging technologies can come together to improve brain health.

Alongside research, I’m passionate about medical communications and scientific writing. I write weekly articles on Substack, translating complex topics into clear, engaging content for a wider audience. I enjoy shaping evidence-based stories that are both accurate and accessible.

Outside of writing, I also work in content creation and branding. I help manage social media for two brands, creating visual content and designing menus, brochures, and promotional materials. I love blending creativity with strategy – whether that’s building an online presence, developing a campaign, or bringing a new idea to life.

I am also someone who cares a lot about wellbeing and balance: you’ll usually find me at the gym, cooking something new, or planning my next trip!
