Summary

This research seeks blood-based biomarkers that predict which people infected with Chagas disease will later develop life-threatening cardiomyopathy. By analysing immune proteins in blood samples from Bolivia, it aims to enable earlier diagnosis, targeted monitoring, and preventative treatment, offering a model for predicting and preventing many chronic diseases before irreversible damage occurs.
