Understanding Alzheimer's disease and Down syndrome

People who have Down syndrome may develop Alzheimer’s disease at a younger age than people without Down syndrome.

Doctors and researchers are still trying to learn why some people with Down syndrome develop dementia, either earlier or later, while others don’t.
