SUMMARY:Research Showcase - Blood Biomarkers for Alzheimer’s Across Diverse Communities
DESCRIPTION:Can Alzheimer’s disease blood biomarkers work equally well across all populations. And how acceptable are these tests for communities that have historically been under represented in research. \nThis livestream is part of the Dementia Researcher weekly Showcase series. Each week we host a 45 minute online session bringing researchers together to share their work\, methods\, and ideas. \nIn this session\, Natalia Chemas will present research from her NIHR funded doctoral fellowship exploring the diagnostic validity of Alzheimer’s disease blood biomarkers in ethnic minority groups. Her work examines whether these emerging diagnostic tools perform consistently across different populations and explores how acceptable this testing approach is for diverse communities. \nNatalia is a PhD student at Queen Mary University of London working within the dementia research team at the Centre for Psychiatry and Neuroscience. She completed a Psychology BSc in Colombia and a Mental Health Sciences MSc at University College London\, and has experience supporting research studies across academia\, the NHS\, and industry. \nHer doctoral research is supervised by Charles Marshall\, Claudia Cooper\, and Ashvini Keshavan and focuses on improving equitable access to emerging diagnostic approaches in Alzheimer’s disease. \nAttendees can expect a research focused session with time for questions and discussion. \n\nRegister
