a conversation space for all things
multiple sclerosis
Welcome to The Raw Nerve – the official Podcast of MS Australia – a conversation space for all things multiple sclerosis.
Join us for news and views on the latest research, treatments, and advocacy efforts, as well as candid and informative interviews with our community; those living with MS and their families and carers, together with leading clinicians, researchers, and advocates.
As the first Australian living with MS to reach the top of the world, Jen speaks candidly about the mental and physical demands of the climb, the support network that helped make it possible, and how living with MS shaped the resilience and perspective she brought to the mountain.
Dr Julia Morahan speaks with leading clinician researchers and MS experts Prof Helmut Butzkueven and A/Prof Anneke van der Walt about the updated 2025 McDonald Diagnostic Criteria for MS.
Dr Tennille Luker chats with the CEO of Continence Health Australia and a Lived Experience Expert Panel member living with multiple sclerosis, about the important topic of continence.
Views expressed on the Raw Nerve Podcast, including any discussions or reference to medications or treatments by podcast guests, do not necessarily represent the views of MS Australia and should not be seen as either an endorsement or rejection of a treatment.
MS Australia does not recommend any specific treatment for people living with MS. Decisions about any treatments, taking into consideration the potential benefits and side effects for each individual’s circumstances, should be made in careful consultation with the person’s neurologist.
