Abstract excerpt
BackgroundPrevious whole exome and whole genome sequencing (WES/WGS) studies identified genome-wide significant associations for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD) with rare variants but highlighted the need for larger samples.ObjectiveIdentify associations of rare coding variants with AD risk in a large-scale, multi-ancestry exome-wide.MethodsWe combined non-overlapping portions of the Alzheimer's Disease...
