Bio

Jennifer Crowell is the Founder and Managing Director of Evulva, an early-stage virtual health literacy platform aiming to address inequalities in vulvovaginal health through innovative education technologies. Health literacy is a strong predictor of health status. Being able to ask the right questions or understand a diagnosis can often be taken for granted. 4/10 adults in the UK are unable to comprehend and/or act on health information; this increases to 6/10 adults when numeracy skills are required for comprehension. Low health literacy is largely unaddressed by public health or in clinical practice. We are aiming to improve health outcomes with personalised adaptive learning that is culturally representative, trans/queer-inclusive, and meets each user at whatever life stage and literacy level they are at. Jennifer’s passion for solving the health literacy crisis in vulvovaginal health began as a Perinatal Neuroscientist. She has 16 years of experience in non-profit and 5 years as a clinical researcher. She studied an MSc in Neuroimaging for Clinical and Cognitive Neuroscience at The University of Manchester having completed two BAs in Developmental Psychology and Globalization/Urban Studies at Portland State University.
