PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Blood-Based Biomarker Testing is an innovative global CME initiative designed to equip primary care and neurology clinicians with practical, guideline-informed strategies to advance the early and accurate diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. Through a combination of virtually live and enduring education, including whiteboard snapshots, clinical exchange discussions, and point-of-care tools; this series focuses on integrating cognitive screening, plasma-based biomarker testing, imaging interpretation, and multidisciplinary collaboration into real-world clinical workflows. Delivered in regional languages with subtitles and supported by a dynamic digital community of care, this program aims to strengthen clinicians’ ability to assess Alzheimer’s pathophysiology, interpret emerging diagnostic data, and coordinate care across specialties, ultimately improving patient assessment, prognostic evaluation, and longitudinal management globally.
