- Title
PREDICTING ALZHEIMER DISEASE.
- Authors
Greely, Henry T.
- Abstract
Biomedical science is learning more about Alzheimer disease. As it does so, the ability to predict with substantial accuracy whether some individuals will be diagnosed with this disease is increasing rapidly. Without a useful preventive intervention, such predictions are, at best, mixed blessings. This Article surveys the science of predicting Alzheimer disease, the likely advantages and disadvantages of such prediction, and their legal status, before offering some recommendations for policy changes.
