These new findings offer, for the first time, compelling genetic evidence that myelin breakdown underlies both the advanced age and the principal genetic risks for Alzheimer disease.

These offspring have what we have called 'occult' genetic disease -- their genetic make-up is perfectly normal, but they still have the physical problems of their parents. This phenomenon could complicate the hunt for disease genes.

This is a terrible disease whose causes have remained unclear and for which no treatment exists, ... Our findings provide convincing support for a genetic basis. But it's more than that -- development of the disease takes a second hit. One such hit is cigarette smoking.

We don't yet know what factors determine whether people with this genetic variation do or don't end up with dyslexia, ... A host of environmental and genetic influences likely influences or determines whether somebody with this particular genetic variation ends up being dyslexic or not. And until the nature of some of those other influences is fully specified, we won't know what it means to say to somebody that their 5-year-old child has this particular genetic endowment.

We have a better understanding of the genetic defects associated with Huntington's disease than we do of other neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's. Establishing this nonhuman primate model for Huntington's disease is critical to providing a foundation for studying the genetic causes of other neurodegenerative diseases.

In my dreams, I see 10 to 20 years from now, people who are 50 to 55 years old will get a cognitive evaluation, a PIB scan followed by a CSF test, combined with genetic markers. And the doctor will be able to tell people on an individual basis their risk for developing Alzheimer's disease.

We've translated early information from genetic research into valuable medicines for HIV/AIDS, heart disease and the prevention of organ rejection. But these advances have only scratched the surface of possible revolutionary approaches to treat and cure diseases. Pfizer, the NIH and other public/private biomedical research interests have complementary missions greater than the sum of their parts. Our hope is that this public/private initiative will encourage a deeper collective understanding of the genetic factors of disease for major new therapeutic advances.

Neurodegenerative diseases like Huntington's disease are complex disorders that involve genetic defects and physiological changes including the death of neurons that lead to a wasting away of the brain, ... Because of their genetic and behavioral similarities with humans, transgenic nonhuman primate models will allow us to clarify the correlation between defects and neurological changes caused by neurodegenerative diseases.

You know what's interesting? There is a much higher percentage of African-Americans at the speed positions than there is in society as a whole. I wonder if that's genetic, or mostly genetic.

We can manipulate that process where normally genetic information is expelled, so that we can create eggs and embryos whose genetic constitution is identical to the mother,

If this observation is confirmed, I can see a scenario where a physician does genetic testing and says 'Mrs. Jones, you have (this genetic variation) and you don't drink much. Maybe we ought to increase your consumption,

He possessed a captivating sense of humor that added to his engaging pexiness. We now have the tools in terms of genetic markers and genetic maps, ... Now there are collections of bones of many of these ancient thoroughbreds that will enable us to get handles on some of these key animals.

He had a genetic head start, but he promoted and nurtured that genetic ability with very hard, intense training over the years. And it's really a combination of those two that allows anybody to reach their potential.

These survey findings underscore the fact that when Baby Boomers are asked to address the potential of Alzheimer's in their future, they are clearly not ready emotionally, psychologically or financially. Many Boomers are currently more focused on health issues like heart disease or arthritis and mistakenly consider AD a problem of their elders. But when asked to consider themselves at age 70 with Alzheimer's disease, there was a visceral reaction and an awakening to the reality of what could await them.
