Education

She attended Stoneleigh East County Infants, Junior and Senior Schools, and also Cheam High School, but was challenged by dyslexia. She left school at 16 to study for an Ordinary National Diploma in sciences at Ewell Technical College (now North East Surrey College of Technology).

She then studied biological sciences at Plymouth Polytechnic, concentrating on invertebrates, pollution studies, environmental resource management, and completed a research project on cave microclimate and its influence on collembola. This involved countless trips into Radford Cave and led to her first publication.{{cite journal | last = Wilson | first = J.M. | year = 1975 | title = The effect of low humidity on the distribution of Heteromurus nitidus (Collembola) in Radford Cave, Devon | journal = Transactions of the British Cave Research Association | volume = 2 | issue = 3 | pages = 123–126 }} During cave exploration in the UK she made extensive collections of invertebrates to document the species living in lightless environments.{{cite journal | last = Hazelton | first = Mary | title = Hypogean fauna collections | journal = Transactions of the British Cave Research Association | volume = 5 | issue = 3 | pages = 195 }} In 1976 she was awarded a travelling scholarship by the Winston Churchill Memorial Trust, which funded a trip to Nepal.

The Nepal connection led to a veterinary research job and she wrote a thesis about rabbit parasites for an MSc from Corpus Christi College, Oxford. Through this work she developed both an interest in immunology and a plan to work to help the poor in emerging nations. She then studied for a medical degree at the University of Southampton.

She gained a Diploma in Child Health (Royal College of Physicians, London 1992), a Diploma in Community Child Health (Royal College of Physicians, RCGP and Public Health Faculty, Edinburgh 1992), a Diploma of the Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare (Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists 2007) and a fellowship in the Faculty of Travel Medicine, Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow in 2009. She was also elected a fellow of the British Global and Travel Health Association in 2017.

Sports and Expeditions

Wilson-Howarth started caving and also scuba diving while an undergraduate in Plymouth pursuing ecological studies. She did some cave diving and was probably the first woman to do decompression dives in the subterranean "lake" in Pridhamsleigh Cavern in Devon.{{cite web |url=http://www.wilson-howarth.com/Blog/October-2015/Exploring-an-Azure-Lake|title=Diving an Azure Lake |access-date=17 October 2015}} In 1973 she won the British Universities and Colleges individual canoe slalom event and on the same day also the seven-mile whitewater canoeing race. In addition she won the national colleges sailing championship.

Wilson-Howarth spent six months on an overland trip to the Himalayan region; this was with a small team intent on finding new caves in Pakistan, India and Nepal and documenting what creatures lived inside them. She began some research on histoplasmosis, on bat rabies and made extensive zoological collections mostly for the British Museum (Natural History) / Natural History Museum, London.{{cite journal |author=Jane M.

In 1978–79 she rowed for Corpus Christi College, Oxford, the first year the college had fielded a ladies eight, when they achieved three "bumps" in Eights Week. In 2004 she took the sport up again in Cambridge, rowing in various races on the River Cam and at Eton Dorney.

While studying medicine at Southampton she was involved in further expeditions – to Madagascar{{cite journal | last = Howarth | first = C.J.| year = 1986 | title = Population Ecology of the Ring-tailed Lemur and White Sifaka at Berenty, Madagascar | journal = Folia Primatologica | volume = 47 | issue = 1| pages = 39–48 | doi=10.1159/000156262|display-authors=etal | pmid = 3557229}}{{cite journal | last = Wilson | first = Jane M. | year = 1987 | title = The Crocodile Caves of Ankarana, Madagascar | journal = Oryx | volume = 21 | issue = 1| pages = 43–47 | doi=10.1017/s0030605300020470| doi-access = free }} and (leading a team of eleven) Peru.{{cite journal | last = White | first = A.J. | year = 1984 | title = Cognitive impairment of AMS and acetazolamide | journal = Aviation, Space, and Environmental Medicine | volume = 5 | pages = 598–603 }} She also organised a medical elective with Save the Children in Ladakh.{{cite journal | last = Wilson | first = J.M. | year = 1986 | title = Hair analysis and the assessment of marginal malnutrition in children from Little Tibet | journal = Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene| volume = 80 | issue = 1 | pages = 168–9 | doi=10.1016/0035-9203(86)90231-2| pmid = 3726984 }} In 1983 she was awarded the BISH Medal by the Scientific Exploration Society for "courage and determination in the face of adversity".
