Bangkok, Thailand – Astrabio, a global innovator in neurobiomarker detection, was honored to participate as a special guest at the signing ceremony of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Eisai (Thailand) Marketing Co., Ltd. (Eisai) and Bangkok Genomics Innovation PLC. (BKGI). This groundbreaking collaboration aims to enhance Alzheimer’s disease (AD) screening and treatment, laying the foundation for a comprehensive care ecosystem in Thailand.
