A/Prof Amy Brodtmann is a cognitive neurologist, with a research background in stroke, neuroimaging and dementia. She received her medical degree from the University of Melbourne before completing specialty training in neurology at Austin Health and the Royal Melbourne Hospital. Her PhD was completed in 2004 in functional magnetic resonance imaging, stroke and normal aging. She travelled to Chicago to do post-doctoral work at the Cognitive Neurology and Alzheimer’s Disease Centre, a recognized centre of excellence in frontotemporal dementia. Upon her return to Australia and the Florey Neuroscience Institutes (FNI) as a NHMRC Post-Doctoral Research Fellow, she continued her research interests in imaging, stroke and dementia.
