Blood biomarkers may be useful in diagnosis, prediction or treatment for stroke, unfortunately discovery of these elusive blood biomarkers has so far been uneventful. However, there is hope according to the review Blood biomarkers in stroke: research and clinical practice published online and in hard copy in this month’s Translational research edition of IJS authored by William Whiteley, Yingfang Tian, and Glen C Jickling.

Carmen Lahiff-Jenkins Managing Editor of the International Journal of Stroke spoke to Professor William Whitely about research into biomarkers and their potential use in clinical practice.
