WRITING/Publications

"Working with Jenny has been an absolute pleasure. Not only did she deliver our brief perfectly first time round, she made it even better. She worked with our external advisors with confidence and clarity, understanding exactly what we were trying to achieve and has created a set of articles that we are proud to share with the public on our You and Your Hormones website.” - Heather Lampard, The Society for Endocrinology

In addition to writing and consulting for fulldome films and writing science communication copy for my own projects and clients, including science communication training materials, I have a number of published articles, listed below, and my blog. Given data for views and average dwell times were last updated 22 April 2026.
