In this week’s episode of the Xtalks Life Science Podcast, host Ayesha Rashid, Senior Life Science Journalist at Xtalks, spoke with Alessio Travaglia, PhD, Neuroscientist and Director of Translational Science at the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health (FNIH) . New findings from a study published in Nature Medicine suggest that a single blood test may be able to predict the onset of Alzheimer’s symptoms within a three- to four-year period. Dr. Travaglia discusses how the test works, what it reveals about the earliest stages of disease and why identifying patients before symptoms appear could transform clinical trials and therapeutic development. Dr. Travaglia has 15 years of experience in basic and translational neuroscience in academia, non-profit, management consulting and venture philanthropy. Tune in to learn more about the new test and how it could transform the early detection of Alzheimer’s disease.
