She is a physiotherapist and neuroscientist, who has conducted research into dystonia for the past 10 years. Her research has focused on non-invasive neuromodulation as a novel treatment intervention, and understanding impairments caused by cervical dystonia outside of the neck such as poor balance, vision and falls that impact on disability and quality of life. Dr Bradnam’s recent research investigated the impact of living with dystonia on engagement in physical activity and barriers to exercise. Outside of work, she likes walking, gardening and the company of her two Persian cats.
