what are biomarkers?
Biomarkers are characteristics of the body that you can measure. So your blood pressure is actually a biomarker. Biomarkers are very important to medicine in general. Weâre all used to going to the doctor and getting all our test results, right, and even imaging â x-ray results or CAT scans â those are biomarkers that tell how the bodyâs doing, and theyâre measurable.
