Meet Shimadzu at AP/PD 2024
For more than 30 years, scientists have been searching for biomarkers and blood tests that could efficiently predict the development of Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative disorders. This is one of the great unmet needs in the society. If a test that requires just a few drops of blood and minimal intervention works, it could detect Alzheimer's disease early and help develop new treatments. Shimadzu has a long history in developing powerful analytical technologies and collaborates with researchers around the world to build a better future for people touched by dementia!
Join our expert to learn about blood biomarkers and analytical solutions based on Mass Spectrometry!

Session Time: 18:40h - 19:40h
Session Type: SPONSORED SYMPOSIUM
Room: Auditorium I
In this session, the state-of-the-art in mass spectrometry and the developments for analyzing neurodegenerative diseases are presented. First, 2002 Nobel Prize winner Koichi TANAKA will highlight Shimadzu’s developments and innovations combining analytical and medical technologies. Second, Prof. Christophe HIRTZ will focus on the synergies of mass spectrometry and immunoassays and how to use these techniques to quantify synuclein in biological samples.

Title: Shimadzu, an innovative company making both analytical and medical instruments over a century.
Speaker: Koichi Tanaka - Mass Spectrometry Research Laboratory - Shimadzu Corporation - Japan

Title: Multiplex and targeted mass spectrometry and immunoassay for the quantification of the alpha, beta and gamma synuclein in biological samples in the context of neurodegenerative diseases
Speaker: Speaker: Prof. Christophe HIRTZ, Franc
