These papers were clumped together based on the fact that they all focused on measuring something in the blood to either predict or diagnose Alzheimer disease – making them blood biomarkers!\n\nIn this episode, you’ll hear about a range of analytes that were useful in diagnosing, or predicting Alzheimer disease. Some of these are the usual suspects of amyloid, tau, and neurodegeneration markers like neurofilament light,... You’ll also hear about some new methods, and some big data papers that used gene expression data to identify new candidate blood biomarkers for AD. Definitely lots to unpack in this rapidly evolving field, so tune in!\n"}
