'“The line between imagination and reality is just not so solid.”
Claudia Canavan is the Head of Features at New Scientist and a former Health & Wellness Director at Women’s Health and Men’s Health UK, bringing scientific and cultural insight to mainstream wellbeing discourse. She writes with clarity and curiosity about areas ranging from the psychedelic renaissance to meditation, grief, and evolving cultural norms around relationships and mental health.
Through her features, Canavan examines how emerging science, like ketamine therapy or lucid dreaming, interacts with lived experience in modern life. Whether moderating panel debates or writing deeply researched narratives, she brings a grounded and accessible voice to complex topics, reshaping how public audiences understand health, resilience, and self-care in an evolving cultural landscape.
