Supple Graphene Bio-Platform for point-of-care early detection and monitoring of Alzheimer’s Disease

Project description

Supporting cost-effective diagnostics for Alzheimer's disease

There is an increasing need for early detection of Alzheimer’s disease to allow for dementia prevention, to delay progression, and to improve access to novel medication. The goal of the EU-funded 2D-BioPAD project is to address this need and develop a cost-effective, minimally invasive point-of-care tool for early diagnosis. This tool targets mild cognitive impairment, an intermediate stage with measurable cognitive impairment but intact daily functioning, and subjective cognitive impairment, where people have memory complaints without significant impairment. The 2D-BioPAD technology will allow for early detection and will perhaps delay disease progression by facilitating cost-effective, accurate, helpful diagnosis at these early stages. Because of its accessible design, it may be used in primary clinical settings, which lowers diagnostic hurdles and medical expenses.

Objective

2D-BioPAD is a cost-effective, non-invasive point of care/self-testing tool for the early and accurate prognosis (assistive diagnosis) of Alzheimer's Disease, with special focus on earlier stages such as Subjective or Mild Cognitive Impairment (SCI/MCI).
