Steven Roeters receives funding from Alzheimer Nederland to study the potential of infrared spectroscopy in Parkinson’s diseaseEarly detection, differentiation, and understanding of protein aggregation in Parkinson's disease are crucial to finding a treatment for this impactful disease. Infrared spectroscopy enables monitoring of protein aggregates known as amyloids. Postdoctoral fellow Steven Roeters will apply infrared spectroscopy and microscopy to analyze cerebrospinal fluid, blood serum, and brain tissue, aiming to identify disease-specific differences.
