Illustration of a translucent human brain formed by glowing neural networks as luminous biomarker signals flow through plasma-like channels toward the brain. Subtle scientific dashboards, proteomic data patterns, brain imaging panels, and AI-inspired analytical overlays in blue and teal tones suggest blood-based biomarker research for predicting future cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease risk before symptoms appear.

Blood Biomarker May Signal Memory Vulnerability Years Before Cognitive Changes

Miller School researchers found that higher p-tau181 blood levels were linked to poorer memory performance six years later in older adults.
