Singapore, Aug. 12 -- Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, has announced the completion of Olink Explore HT proteomic analysis of approximately 5,500 research samples from The Michael J. Fox Foundation's (MJFF) landmark study, the Parkinson's Precision Medicine Initiative (PPMI). The resulting data are now in PPMI's data repository, where they are available to the global research community.

The project creates a large-scale proteomics resource designed to help researchers study Parkinson's disease at the protein level and investigate biological signals associated with disease progression, patient heterogeneity and potential biomarker development. By applying Olink technology to deeply characterised PPMI sam...
