Multiple sclerosis, or MS, is a highly complex condition to diagnose, treat and live with. 

Affecting 1 in 1000 people, and with symptoms usually presenting in people between the age of 20 and 40, the impact of MS can vary person to person. Any part of the central nervous system can be impacted - from vision, to sensory perception and sometimes cognition. 

In this episode, we dive into the complexities of this disease with perspectives from leading MS clinician and researcher Professor Trevor Kilpatrick, Florey scientist Michele Binder, and Catherine, a doctor who has lived with MS for 20 years.  

The Brain Matters Podcast is brought to you by The Florey Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health and hosted by Dr Shane Huntington.
