About

Dr. Kelly Brunton is a leading investigator in pediatric neuromodulation, with a primary focus on the safety and clinical application of non-invasive brain stimulation in children. Her most impactful work, a landmark prospective study on over 3.5 million stimulations, established the definitive safety and tolerability profile for transcranial magnetic and direct current stimulation in pediatric populations. This seminal paper, cited over 160 times, has become a foundational reference for researchers worldwide, enabling the ethical expansion of brain stimulation studies into developmental neuroscience. Dr. Brunton’s contributions have directly addressed critical gaps in understanding how the developing brain responds to these technologies, paving the way for novel therapeutic interventions in neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders. Her rigorous evidence-based approach has not only shaped clinical guidelines but also empowered a new generation of researchers to explore neuromodulation in children with confidence. Through her work, Dr. Brunton has emerged as a key authority in translating adult neuromodulation protocols into safe, effective pediatric applications.
