The Kinemed finding is a proof of concept (PD vs control). We are funding the next step (looking cross-sectionally -- do the distinctions hold in early vs mid vs late-stage PD). If the biomarkers still hold, then this would be a candidate for use of PPMI data/samples.
Still exciting but wanted to correct my statement.

Do you have any idea when this study is expected to come with conclusive results ?
