Abstract
Summary of the research findings
Genetic studies have primarily been conducted in European ancestry populations, identifying dozens of loci associated with late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, much of AD's heritability remains unexplained; as the prevalence of AD varies across populations, the genetic architecture of the disease may also vary by population with the presence of novel variants or loci.
1,174 Caribbean Hispanics ancestry cases, 1,391 Caribbean Hispanics ancestry controls
