She has had a particular focus on the area victimization and post-traumatic stress disorder in substance users, issues of particular importance to women. Her focus on psychiatric comorbidity in substance use disorders has led to investigations of gender-specific issues because of the high comorbidity of anxiety and affective disorders in substance-using women. Dr. Brady began her research career conducting basic science work in the drug abuse field and received a Ph.D. in pharmacology. She moved into clinical and translational research after finishing her residency in psychiatry in 1989. She has been continuously federally funded to conduct research since 1989.

Dr. Brady is also the PI and Center Director for one of eleven Specialized Centers of Research on Sex and Gender Factors Affecting Women’s Health. The center at MUSC, known as the Women’s Research Center (WRC) is a translational research center designed to forge connections between basic scientists and clinical investigators studying gender-based differences in substance use disorders.

In 2001 Dr. Brady received the Betty Ford award for her contributions to research on women's issues in the substance abuse area. Last year, South Carolina's governor Jim Hodges honored Dr. Brady by recognizing her achievements through the "Women of Achievement" award. Her contributions to drug abuse treatment throughout South Carolina and her long-standing history of mentoring women in science were specifically mentioned as achievements that were important in determining her selection for the award. Dr. Brady has also directed a great deal of effort towards mentoring others. She was the director of the Addiction Psychiatry Fellowship Program from 1994-2004 and has served as a mentor for a number of post-doctoral fellows, residents and junior faculty.
