It is more than 20 years since I discovered in my 50s that I have a copy of the gene, ApoE4, that has been linked to a raised risk of Alzheimer's. It's the same gene that the actor Chris Hemsworth carries, although he has two copies, one from each of his parents - he learned this in 2022 after having tests for a documentary series he was making about longevity.

Researchers at the Sant Pau Research Institute in Barcelona looked at data from 10,000 people and 3,000 brain donors and found that the majority of those with two copies showed signs of Alzheimer's by the time they reached the age of 55. The researchers estimate that around 2 per cent of people have this gene profile.
