ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — Researchers would aim to map the genes of one million people living with or at-risk of Alzheimer's disease over five years through a proposed initiative at the State University of New York.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo proposed Friday to establish the SUNY Curing Alzheimer's Health Consortium to collect and map genomic data statewide. The Democrat said the initiative will eventually provide the data to researchers working to slow the progression of Alzheimer's.
