Speaker 3: (00:32)
Can you provide a little background about your role here at Mayo Clinic and experience with this disease state?

Speaker 3: (01:21)
Can you give us an understanding of rapidly progressive dementia? How is it different and what should physicians be looking for?

Speaker 3: (03:13)
You mentioned "syndromic" and that there are several diseases underneath that, one of them being Creutzfeldt-Jacob. Can you explain the others in a bit more detail? What makes them each unique under the heading of rapidly progressive dementias?

Speaker 3: (05:29)
Does that encompass it: prion diseases, then the neurodegenerative bucket, then autoimmune?

Speaker 3: (06:03)
Can you speak to the components of the new Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease-specific evaluation and the rapidly progressive dementia evaluation, and the assays that they're performed on?

Speaker 3: (09:30)
Anything you want to add to that summary of the assays' components?

Speaker 3: (11:09)
Can you explain the role — or lack thereof — of the 14-3-3 protein biomarker, according to our research?

Speaker 3: (13:44)
Which patients should get this testing, and who should not?

Speaker 3: (17:22)
What does it mean if the results come back positive and if the results come back negative?

Speaker 3: (21:57)
What are you most excited about with these tests?
