Research conducted at the BrizBrain & Spine Research Foundation is supervised by our neurosurgeons. These include Dr Frank Tomlinson, Dr Terry Coyne, Dr Richard Kahler, Dr David Walker and Dr Michael Bryant. Each surgeon also runs a busy surgical practice and needs assistance to conduct research.

The foundation employs research assistants to initiate and conduct studies. They enrol patients, supervise treatment, collect and analyse data. The research assistants at BrizBrain & Spine Research Foundation are Registered Nurses with years of clinical experience in brain and spinal surgical conditions. They extend their experience by conducting research studies. The neurosurgeons and research assistants are supported by an administrative team that can address any enquiries.
