This is a legitimately very big deal. The only test for Alzheimer's disease we've had is PET-scan or spinal tap. The assay for p-tau217 registers the presence of the plaques and tangles of AD equally accurately, and better than MRI or other tests.

A blood test for Alzheimer's is closer to reality than ever,  promising news in a field that's faced one failure after another. "Amazing isn't it?" one expert says. "I mean, really, five years ago, I would have told you it was science fiction." nyti.ms/3hJHsQU

‘Amazing, Isn’t It?’ Long-Sought Blood Test for Alzheimer’s in Reach (Published 2020)

Scientists say such tests could be available in a few years, speeding research for treatments and providing a diagnosis for dementia patients who want to know if they have Alzheimer’s disease.

The world is better when we give older adults the tools and resources they need to remain independent and engaged, allowing them to continue their valuable contributions to communities. #wisdom #elders
