New Alzheimer’s genetic score improves prediction across ancestries
Key Takeaways
- Researchers reported a multi-ancestry polygenic risk score for late-onset Alzheimer’s disease.
- Earlier Alzheimer’s genetic risk scores often performed inconsistently outside European ancestry groups.
- The new model performed better for genetically diverse populations, according to the source text.
- The findings point toward more inclusive risk prediction in Alzheimer’s research and care.
