Thrilled to share the Tofaris Lab latest publication JAMA Neurology: Neuronally Derived Extracellular Vesicle α-Synuclein as a Serum Biomarker for Individuals at Risk of Developing #Parkinson disease. jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman… A step towards a blood screening test to predict PD risk?

Can a blood test predict the risk of #Parkinsons disease? The answer is yes. Watch #KavliOxford PI George Tofaris discussing their new publication. youtu.be/FMlBCj2uk4Y Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences Medical Sciences University of Oxford The Kavli Foundation Tofaris Lab JAMA Neurology

Research from Tofaris Lab has led to the development of a new blood test to identify #Parkinsons disease before symptoms occur. This could allow clinicians to screen for those at high risk of developing the disease and facilitate timely intervention. ndcn.ox.ac.uk/news/researche…

Very pleased to have my paper about a blood test to identify individuals at risk of developing Parkinson's Disease published in JAMA Neurology! Massive thanks to all who contributed on the way! doi.org/10.1001/jamane… Tofaris Lab #Parkinsons #ExtracellularVesicles

Our #PhD student Shijun (Victor) Yan started today's Science talks on the ARUK Thames Valley Network research day! He talked about his work establishing a new blood test to identify individuals at risk of developing #Parkinsons 🧠 Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences Kavli Institute for Nanoscience Discovery, Oxford JAMA Neurology ➡️pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38048087/


Big news on #WorldParkinsonsDay2024: 🎉 Shijun (Victor) Yan from #KavliOxford has just been awarded the prestigious Goodger and Schorstein Scholarship!

Thrilled to share our latest publication Tofaris Lab "Single extracellular vesicle detection assay identifies membrane-associated α-synuclein as an early-stage biomarker in #Parkinson disease." Cell Reports Medicine cell.com/cell-reports-m… Well done Shijun (Victor) Yan Suman Dutta et al!

Excited to share our paper in Cell Reports Medicine! We developed a droplet microfluidic assay to quantify EV surface proteins and discovered α-synuclein can be a biomarker for early #Parkinsons — using just a few drops of blood. Huge thanks to my amazing colleagues and collaborators!
