First paper from CHEN lab!🩸->🧠Can we use p-tau217 value to estimate PET-like map of AD pathology?🤔 We say YES!💡In two datasets (A4, ADNI), p-tau217 level can predict concurrent Ab (but NOT Ab change) and future tau accumulation almost everywhere!

Working in this paper was a really fun collaboration with folks at AMYPAD, Lyduine Collij, Ariane Bollack, Gill Farrar and many others.
This should be a helpful piece for people who want to understand Centiloids!
