Huge CONGRATULATIONS to Caitlin Knight on achieving endorsement in Neuropsychology at NQNS. From having had her as a masters student to an intern and now a fully qualified neuropsychologist. We wish Caitlin all the very best in the next chapter of her career and will miss her greatly at NQNS.
What better way to celebrate brain awareness week than a post about Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery now being available for regional residents of Queensland. ![]()

Deep Brain Stimulation is an advanced form of therapy that can assist suitable patients suffering with Parkinson’s Disease. This form of innovative therapy has only been accessible in capital cities across Australia. DBS is now being offered in Townsville for patients in regional areas of QLD which is preferable. The first two patients underwent surgery in February which was a complete success and completely life changing. Deidre was fortunate enough to observe this procedure along with the highly experienced team of professionals from Sydney, Adelaide and Townsville. ![]()
