Margot Nilsen writes about healthcare, wellness, and medical innovation with the authority that comes from ten years as a clinical research coordinator. Based in Minneapolis, she managed trials in cardiology and diabetes before transitioning to health communications. Margot’s Writly articles translate peer-reviewed studies into actionable takeaways and challenge the wellness industry’s more dubious claims. She holds a degree in biology and a certificate in science communication. Her writing is empathetic but unsentimental, the product of someone who’s sat with patients through both breakthroughs and disappointments. Margot is also a long-distance cyclist and a volunteer at a free community clinic. She believes good health information is a right, not a perk.
