Every disease has a story to tell - Dr Travis Brown

This Pathological Life podcast is an inspired collaboration between General Pathologist Dr Travis Brown and seasoned radio interviewer and podcaster, Steve Davis. 

By using a storytelling format, they share the history behind diseases and put health challenges into context to deepen your library of anecdotes and explanations. 

In Season One, the podcast brought to life a spectrum of general pathology topics by delving into each through the lens of historical aspects of disease, community impact of chronic illness, study or research threads, and topical areas of interest. We shared episodes such as ‘A pox on both your houses.’ – about small pox; ‘A pathological addiction to making sandwiches’ – Typhoid Mary and quite simply, "What is Pathology?".

In Season Two, we kick off with indigenous health chats with Dan Tyson Chief Executive Officer at Desert Knowledge Australia. We have lined up discussions about medical ethics with President AMASA Dr Chris Moy and social media health data with Mayo Clinic's Lee Aase Communications Director, Social and Digital Innovation, as well as immunology and allergy testing with Dr Daman Langguth Head of Immunology Department, Chair of SNP Partners, Member of Executive Advisory Committee, Chair of the Data Request Committee.

We consider "What is genius?" with Sonic Genetics Professor Graeme Suthers

We encourage you to request topics, stories and tales that would be of interest.

Enjoy the listen.
