Professor Roger Kneebone
About this episode

The Hungarian musician Anna Detari studied the flute at the Liszt Institute in Budapest and developed a passion for performing contemporary compositions before her career was disrupted by Musician's Focal Dystonia - a mysterious condition which she went on to research and which formed the basis of her doctorate. Although Anna has recovered her ability to perform, her interests in musicians' wellbeing and the impact of neurodiversity on professional careers form the basis of her current work at the Royal College of Music
