Genetic Insight for Personalized Prevention

The Polygenic Risk Map – Alzheimer’s Disease is a cutting-edge genetic test that uses Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) analysis to assess an individual's inherited risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. Unlike single-gene tests, PRS evaluates many genetic variants across the genome, providing a much more comprehensive and nuanced picture of genetic predisposition.

This test empowers healthcare providers and patients with personalized, actionable insights—allowing for earlier lifestyle changes, cognitive health strategies, or targeted monitoring that may help reduce overall risk or delay onset.

What This Test Measures:

  • Polygenic Risk Score – Alzheimer’s Disease
  • A data-driven estimate of an individual’s inherited genetic risk for Alzheimer’s based on the presence of multiple common variants associated with the condition.
  • Ancestry Markers
  • Provides ancestry-informative markers, which help improve the accuracy and interpretation of the risk score across diverse genetic backgrounds.

Why This Test Matters:

  • Identifies individuals who may be at increased lifetime risk for Alzheimer’s disease—even if they have no symptoms.
  • Enables early and proactive prevention planning (diet, exercise, cognitive engagement, sleep, cardiovascular care).
  • Supports precision medicine approaches in neurology, geriatrics, and preventive care.
  • Goes beyond single-gene testing (like APOE) to give a broader and more accurate risk profile.

Who Should Consider This Test?

  • Individuals with a family history of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia
  • People who want to take a proactive approach to brain health and prevention
  • Clinicians seeking genetic data to guide patient-specific wellness strategies
  • Adults interested in personalized longevity and cognitive resilience planning

Key Features:

  • Non-invasive (saliva or cheek swab sample)
  • One-time genetic test with lifelong relevance
  • Simple ordering and results delivery through Labs By Request
  • Available nationwide

Your genes are not your destiny—but they can inform your path.
