A neural parasite attached to Quinn

Nothing was discovered at the time, but Quinn himself would later become a victim of alien infestation. His mind was overtaken by the unknown alien intelligence in an attempt to infiltrate Starfleet Headquarters in 2364. Later that year, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and Commander William T. Riker of the Enterprise-D destroyed the alien mother creature, which lived in the body of Dexter Remmick, thereby also killing all other alien parasites on Earth. Quinn himself was expected to make a full recovery following the ordeal. (TNG: "Conspiracy")

In the year Admiral Quinn was infected, he was attached to Starfleet Operational Support Services and made among others the executive decision to postpone the planned upgrade of the warp sensor grids of the USS Gremlin due to budgetary considerations. (TNG: "Conspiracy")

Quinn was part of Commander William T. Riker's memories while being infected on the surface of Surata IV and treated in sickbay. (TNG: "Shades of Gray")

Appendices

Background information

Admiral Quinn was played by Ward Costello. His rank insignia was an admiral braid with no pip, which costume notes have indicated as rear admiral (lower half).

Quinn was never seen or mentioned again after the first season of The Next Generation, with the exception of archive footage used in TNG: "Shades of Gray". Quinn's recovery is stated in a log entry made by Captain Picard.

Apocrypha

Quinn returned, one rank higher, as a full rear admiral in issues of DC Comics' TNG series story arc entitled War and Madness.

While listed as a 2375 Dominion War casualty in the New Worlds, New Civilizations book, Quinn was later mentioned as being retired, circa 2380, in the novel Articles of the Federation.
