Philadelphia, July 20, 2023 – Using data from diverse populations around the world, researchers from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) have developed an algorithm to help predict the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease based on genetic information in patients with a wide variety of ethnic backgrounds. While additional ethnicities should be included in future studies, this work aims to eliminate disparities in diagnosis of the disease. The findings were published online by the journal Alzheimer's and Dementia .
