Summary

Neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s are closely linked to abnormal dopamine levels but are diagnosed too late. This research develops a tiny electrochemical brain sensor that selectively detects dopamine in real time. Such technology could enable earlier diagnosis, better monitoring, and improved treatment of neurological disorders.
