Welcome to Multiple Sclerosis New Zealand’s 5 part series for MS Awareness Week 2025.

This week, host Jess Brien will be chatting with people who are living with MS, healthcare professionals, and people who have dedicated their lives to making living with MS possible, to discuss how Time Matters in MS. 

Today we are discussing some exciting research in the multiple sclerosis space.

Guests: Dr Elza Cloete (Multiple Sclerosis New Zealand Research Trust), Dr Daniel Cornfeld and Paul Condron (Mātai Medical Research Institute) & Brett Drummond (MS Translate).
