Investigators at the University of Michigan are
seeking participants for research on the impact of genetic risk assessment for
Alzheimer’s disease. The study explores different methods for giving people the
results of genetic testing that provides information about one’s future risk of
developing Alzheimer’s disease. The study involves a brief screening visit or
telephone interview, a medical and neurological history, an educational
session, a blood draw for genetic testing, a disclosure session to discuss
results, and follow-up interviews for one year. Participants will meet with a
certified genetic counselor and receive the education, risk assessment, and
genetic counseling free of charge.
Call the REVEAL study team at (734)-763-7726 or
