About Katrina

Dr. Katrina Williams is a Senior Lecturer in Physiotherapy in the School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, Faculty of Health and Behavioural Sciences, at the University of Queensland. She holds a Bachelor of Physiotherapy from the University of Queensland, a Masters (Coursework) and Postgraduate Diploma from the University of Sydney, and a Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Queensland completed in 2022, with her doctoral thesis titled 'Exploring the relationship between sensory symptoms, function and participation in people with Multiple Sclerosis'. A physiotherapist with clinical specialty in managing neurological conditions and vestibular disorders, her research investigates how balance systems including the vestibular, ocular, and somatosensory modalities interact with the brain to optimise movement control, functionality, physical activity, and participation for individuals with neurological and vestibular pathologies. These include multiple sclerosis, cerebellar dysfunction, traumatic brain injury, stroke, Parkinson's disease, myasthenia gravis, motor neuron disease, concussion, Meniere's disease, vestibular migraines, acoustic neuromas, and age-related vestibular dysfunction. She also explores the role of lifestyle factors such as physical activity, community integration, sleep, and wellness in influencing vestibular and neurological conditions.
