Welcome to the Alzheimer's Disease Sequencing Project
The overarching goals of the ADSP are to:
-
Identify new genomic variants contributing to increased risk of developing Late-Onset Alzheimer's Disease (LOAD)
-
Identify new genomic variants contributing to protection against developing Alzheimer's Disease (AD)
-
Provide insight as to why individuals with known risk factor variants escape from developing AD
-
Examine these factors in multi-ethnic populations as applicable in order to identify new pathways for disease prevention
