Marina Bluma

I am a clinical neuroscientist specializing in neuroimaging, aging and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Currently, I am a postdoctoral researcher at Nordberg Translational Molecular Imaging Lab, where I perform research on  amyloid PET and plasma biomarkers in AD. I'm particularly interested in understanding clinical value of novel plasma biomarkers in relation to the established biomarkers of AD, considering the disease complexity.
