Meg Tirrell began her career as a senior health and science reporter for CNBC before moving on to her current role as a medical correspondent for CNN's Health unit. Her journalistic journey has seen her cover a range of medical topics, from the development of new medicines for Alzheimer's disease, cancer, and rare diseases to public health emergencies such as Ebola, Zika, and COVID-19. Tirrell's commitment to factual reporting has brought critical health issues to the forefront, providing the public with essential information during times of crisis.
Aside from covering public health emergencies, Tirrell's reporting has also been instrumental in investigating trials holding the drug industry accountable for the opioid epidemic and drug shortages. Her investigative journalism has shed light on the complex interplay between the pharmaceutical industry and the public health sphere, contributing to increased public understanding and scrutiny of these issues.
Tirrell's academic foundation has contributed to her robust career in health and science reporting. She holds a master's degree in journalism from Northwestern University and a bachelor's degree in English and music from Wellesley College. These academic accolades, coupled with her practical experience, provide her with a unique perspective on the intricacies of health reporting and the ability to communicate complex issues to a broad audience.
