The Swedish BioFINDER Study

The BioFINDER studies are independent and non-overlapping studies that have been initiated with the overarching aims to discover key mechanisms in Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and other neurodegenerative disorders. These studies are designed to develop early and accurate diagnostic tests, identify novel treatment targets and help to understand the links between different pathologies and clinical symptoms.

So excited and honored to be invited to present the opening plenary at #AIC2025 this year in Toronto! 🧠

🙏 I would be very grateful if you could help me gather the most inspiring papers (including your own!) of the past year by completing this survey:

Immunoassay choice for #pTau217 is important!

In this study, we show that LMW #pTau217 is more specific to Alzheimers pathology than HMW #pTau217 immunoassay designs – which can give false-positives.
