We're excited to invite you to our in-person event led by Queen Square Centre for Neuromuscular Diseases and UK DRI Biomarker Factory. Learn from our speakers how protein biomarkers are used to advance the search for new treatments for neurodegenerative disorders, can help detect disease before the onset of symptoms and monitor treatment response.

We’re looking forward to meeting you during our four sessions for a morning of biomarkers in Neuroscience!

Speakers

  • Prof. Andrea Malaspina Professor of Neurology ‘United to End MND and the use of Olink for biomarkers discovery in the translational pipeline, from cell lines to patients samples’
  • Prof. Henrik Zetterberg UK DRI Group Leader 
  • Dr. Amanda Heslegrave Senior Research Fellow 'A brief introduction to the Biomarker Factory'
  • Anne-Li Lind, PhD Olink Proteomics 'How can Olink be used to address research questions in neurological diseases?'

The event will be followed by lunch.
