Promises of AI in Alzheimer’s disease: Can algorithms outpace memory loss?

To prevent algorithmic bias, the authors call for multivariable modeling frameworks that jointly incorporate biological sex, genetic ancestry, and gender-related life-course exposures.

Investigators could turn to genealogy to identify recovered DNA in Nancy Guthrie case

Officials investigating the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie have recovered DNA from a glove found near her house. If they don't get an exact match, they could turn to genealogy websites for clues.
