An international team of scientists, including those from the School of Medicine, has identified two more genetic risk factors for Alzheimer's disease.
The group, led by investigators from the School of Medicine at Cardiff University in the U.K., completed the largest genome-wide association study ever involving patients with Alzheimer's disease. The study pooled DNA samples from more than 19,000 older European and U.S. residents. Seven thousand had Alzheimer's disease, and the others had no clinical symptoms of the disorder.
