The researchers deployed a newly developed machine learning system called SIGNET – Statistical Inference on Gene Regulatory ...

Men twice as likely to develop dementia if they have this common gene variant Men who carry two copies of a common genetic variant are twice as likely to develop dementia than women with the same ...

For more than 30 years, Alzheimer’s researchers have thought of APOE4 as a major genetic risk factor for most cases of the devastating neurologic disease. But a new study published on Monday argues ...

Researchers have identified a gene that they reported was linked to a 1.5 times-higher likelihood of suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. In the first large-scale trial of brains afflicted by the ...

The gene most strongly correlated with Alzheimer's disease also boosts seizure activity by decreasing levels of ion pumps and energy-producing enzymes in neurons, a new study by researchers at the ...

Researchers have discovered a rare genetic trait that could delay the onset of Alzheimer's in people who face an overwhelming risk of developing the mind-robbing disease. A study published Wednesday ...

New research suggests that super-agers generate twice as many neurons as typical older adults. But you don't have to be a ...

At Mass General Brigham, Boston researchers pair gene studies with a 12-point Brain Care Score to help lower the risk of Alzheimer's and other brain disorders.

For the first time, researchers have identified a genetic form of late-in-life Alzheimer’s disease — in people who inherit two copies of a worrisome gene. Scientists have long known a gene called ...

Potentially more than 90% of Alzheimer’s disease cases would not occur without the contribution of a single gene (APOE), according to a new analysis led by UCL researchers. The scientists also found ...
