Repeats Raise Risk. The more STR expansions a person carried, the higher their odds for AD (left). People with more repeat expansions tended to have worse tau pathology as per Braak stage (right).

A high-quality genome assembly of Silene latifolia was generated by researchers at CNRS/Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1 and ...
