Early onset familial Alzheimer disease (eFAD) is hereditary and marked by Alzheimer disease symptoms that appear at an unusually early age. Symptoms can start in a person's thirties, forties, and ...

“This gene-to-molecule research is crucial for discovery in Alzheimer’s disease. It offers fresh perspectives on how genetic risk factors, such as APOE, influence metabolism and perhaps disease ...

Some people’s brains age faster than average, some slower. Scientists quantify this “brain age gap” by subtracting a person’s chronological age from their brain’s biological age. Because aging brains ...

Funding for up to $30,000 in total costs (maximum of 8% allocated to indirect costs) for a relevant research proposal, pending NIA approval. Access to monthly mentoring with experts in the fields of ...

Identifying genes that control protein levels could provide insight into disease development and progression. However, genetic analyses such as genome-wide associated studies identify regions ...
