In case you missed it: the FDA cleared the first blood test to help diagnose Alzheimer’s this week.

For too long, Americans have struggled to get a simple and accurate diagnosis. This action is a step toward earlier, less invasive detection, which can lead to better access to care and treatment.
First FDA-cleared Alzheimer's blood test could make diagnoses faster, more accurate
The first Alzheimer's blood test cleared by the Food And Drug Administration is poised to change the way doctors diagnose and treat the disease.

I'm reintroducing myself and looking to make new connections. I'm passionate about the intersection of dementia, workforce development, and technology. A couple of years ago, I made the bold move to emigrate to NZ and have been on a lengthy 7-year doctorate journey, but I'm almost finished!

💡Behind every data point, every sensor reading, is a person.

This blog is about keeping that perspective as we navigate the growing role of data in dementia care
