Steady, here is the AlzMatch Study/APT Web information on its blood draw, of which I had earlier in the week.

How can a blood test advance Alzheimer's research?

Detecting amyloid

Alzheimer's disease is associated with increased levels of amyloid, a type of protein, in the brain. The AlzMatch Study hopes to learn if a blood draw can make it easier to screen people for studies with amyloid requirements.

Improve screening

Blood tests like the ones in the AlzMatch Study may help predict a person’s likelihood of amyloid being detected on a PET scan, an imaging test that is required for many Alzheimer's studies.

Qualify for current studies

After a simple blood draw, the AlzMatch Study will let participants know within 4-6 weeks if they might be eligible for other Alzheimer's studies.

Its focus is still on amyloid. That will change sooner or later.
