Proper Citation: Alzheimers Disease Genetics Consortium (RRID:SCR_004004)

Description: Consortium to conduct genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to identify genes associated with an increased risk of developing late-onset Alzheimer''''s disease (LOAD). The goal of the ADGC is to identify genetic variants associated with risk for AD. It plans to do this through the following collaborative goals: # Identify genes responsible for AD susceptibility # Identify AD sub-phenotype genes rate-of-progression plaque / tangle load / distribution biomarker variability # Generate a genetic data resource for the AD research community Data generated by ADGC is available at the following website: https://www.niagads.org/content/alzheimers-disease-genetics-consortium-adgc-collection
