The problem is we don't yet understand how Alzheimer's works, nor do we have the technology to develop a treatment, Andreessen Horowitz general partner Jorge Conde said Tuesday at CNBC's Healthy Returns conference.

We don't yet have the technology to develop a treatment for Alzheimer's disease, says Andreessen Horowitz general partner Jorge Conde.

"One of the things we look for when we make investments, we talked earlier about binary risk, is when developing a new therapeutic, you have to understand what the disease is doing," he said. "You have to understand what you need in it to affect the disease process, and then you have to have the capability to actually make that molecule or that cell or that gene."
