Large multi-ethnic genetic analyses of amyloid imaging identify new genes for Alzheimer disease

Abstract Amyloid PET imaging has been crucial for detecting the accumulation of amyloid beta (Aβ) deposits in the brain and to study Alzheimer’s disease (AD). We performed a genome-wide association study on the largest collection of amyloid imaging data (N = 13,409) to date, across multiple ethnicit...
