Will Rodman è uno scienziato che lavora in una grande società farmaceutica, la Gen-Sys, dove svolge ricerche sulla genetica per sviluppare un virus benigno in grado di ricostituire il tessuto cerebrale danneggiato. L'uomo vuole individuare una cura per l'Alzheimer, malattia da cui è affetto il padre Charles. La tenacia e la dedizione di Will gli hanno precluso qualunque relazione personale, ma il legame tra le sue ricerche e la malattia del padre avvicina i due, per quanto in circostanze difficili e dolorose. Poco prima che la Gen-Sys dia inizio alla sperimentazione umana di un nuovo farmaco promettente e potenzialmente molto redditizio, l'ALZ-112, le scimmie sulle quali Will sta effettuando i test mostrano all'improvviso un comportamento insolitamente aggressivo.
