Genetic Variants in Alzheimer's Disease

Since 2009, a revolution has been witnessed in Alzheimer’s Disease genetics. New genetic links are being discovered at an unprecedented pace and our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of neurodegeneration have taken a quantum leap forward. This book provides a thorough description of the gene...
