Genetic meta-analysis of diagnosed Alzheimer's disease identifies new risk loci and implicates Aβ, tau, immunity and lipid processing
Risk for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD), the most prevalent dementia, is partially
driven by genetics. To identify LOAD risk loci, we performed a large genome-wide …
