MIAMI, Oct. 28 (UPI) -- A collaborative worldwide effort resulted in the identification of 11 new Alzheimer's genes -- doubling the potential for medications, U.S. researchers say.
Margaret A. Pericak-Vance, director of the John P. Hussman Institute for Human Genomics at the Miller School of Medicine at the University of Miami, and Lindsay A. Farrer of Boston University, led the analysis teams for the American Alzheimer's Disease Genetics Consortium.
