The Arizona Science Center is introducing a new series for adults called Spotlight on Science. This series aims to bring experts from various fields of science together for an evening of discussion and education on topics that have a significant impact on society. The first event in this new series will focus on “Breakthroughs in Blood Biomarkers–Revolutionizing Alzheimer’s Disease Diagnosis” with Nicholas Ashton, PH. D, an expert in Alzheimer’s disease.
