Parkinson’s Disease Variant Detection and Disclosure: PD Generation, A North American Study

Parkinson’s Disease Variant Detection and Disclosure: Comprehensive Report Background Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by motor dysfunction and non-motor symptoms. Research has shown that at least seven genes (LRRK2, GBA1, PRKN, SNCA, PINK1, PARK7, VPS35) are directly related to the occurr...

Development and Preclinical Validation of 2-Deoxy 2-[18F]Fluorocellobiose as an Aspergillus-Specific PET Tracer

Academic Report The incidence of global Invasive Fungal Infections (IFIs) has increased over the past few decades, primarily affecting immunocompromised patients, and these infections are often associated with high mortality and morbidity rates. Aspergillus fumigatus is one of the most common and deadly IFI pathogens. The main obstacles to effectiv...
