摘要：
Understanding how genetic variation can confer susceptibility to neurological disease is an urgent priority. A new gene-expression study has explored the relationship between DNA sequence variation at the microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) locus and MAPT expression in the brain, providing an exciting new paradigm for the field.
