Description:
Article Corticobasal degeneration is a rare neurodegenerative disorder that can only be definitively diagnosed by autopsy. Here, Kouri et al. conduct a genome-wide-association study and identify two genetic susceptibility loci 17q21 ( MAPT ) and 3p12 ( MOBP ), and a novel susceptibility locus at 8p12.
