A treatment for Alzheimer's will be ready and available within 20 years, according to a leading UK expert.
Professor Julie Williams and her team believe that treatment for one of the most common forms of the disease will be accessible by 2040 after identifying 92 genes that significantly increase the risk of developing the progressive condition.
When research began in 2009, the scientists knew of just three genes, with Professor Williams telling the BBC: ""Things are speeding up and improving all the time. I've learnt more in the last seven years than I did in the previous 20."
