PhD candidate Michaela McGrath is investigating the effects of long COVID, drawing from personal experience after being diagnosed with the condition herself. Her research focuses on balance issues and how the brain processes information differently in affected individuals. Surprisingly, her study has found that middle-aged women are disproportionately impacted. Michaela is currently conducting a pilot trial to explore non-medical interventions, such as physiotherapy, to address these symptoms. If you have long COVID and would like to take part in Michaela’s study you can contact her via email at michaela.mcgrath@canberra.edu.au
