The ordered assembly of α-synuclein protein encoded by SNCA into filaments characterizes neurodegenerative synucleinopathies. Lewy body disease (LBD) shows predominantly neuronal and multiple system ...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is driven by genetic and epigenetic factors. A knowledge gap remains in applying DNA methylation (DNAm) to capture AD-specific signatures. We developed the AD DNA Methylation ...
Research led by Mount Sinai scientists within the PsychAD Consortium, a large-scale, multidisciplinary initiative launched in ...
Genetic testing can help doctors diagnose some neurological disorders, such as Huntington’s disease. It can also provide insights into a person’s risk of future health conditions. Genetic testing ...

New Alzheimer’s genetic score improves risk prediction across ancestry groups
Genetic risk beyond APOE was linked to cognition, hippocampal volume, amyloid and tau across several ancestry groups.
Motor neuron diseases, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), share physical similarities but have been largely viewed as genetically distinct. However, ...
A massive global genetics study is reshaping how we understand mental illness—and why diagnoses so often pile up. By analyzing genetic data from more than six million people, researchers uncovered ...
In September 2026, a collection summarizing the research findings of the "PsychAD Consortium" was published in Nature ...
The power of genetic testing: new screening methods are catching rare diseases before symptoms start
Genetic testing is helping rare disease patients get answers earlier, sometimes before symptoms appear, opening the door to treatment before irreversible damage occurs. For families, a genetic ...
Genetics is just one of several factors thought to influence personality disorder development. Life experiences, family dynamics, coping mechanisms, and social learning may all be contributing factors ...
The UAB Molecular Genetic Pathology Fellowship Program is participating in the Molecular Genetic Pathology Unified Timeline for the 2025-2026 fellowship year. For ...
