I am very happy to announce the generation of a novel epigenetic clock based on age-associated changes in chromatin accessibility!! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

A team led by Alejandro Ocampo at Université de Lausanne describes a novel, multiomic #epigenetic aging clock based on chromatin accessibility & transcriptomics in PBMCs, using ATAC-Seq & RNA-Seq. See how it compares to the Horvath or Hannum clocks: bit.ly/3R4RqOy

I am happy to announce that my paper investigating the differences between the gut microbiomes of rural and urban communities in Senegal is published in iScience! cell.com/iscience/fullt… Thank you to all of my co-authors, especially Philippe Seksik

Happy to announce the publication of our novel aging clock based on the analysis of chromatin accessibility by ATAC-seq! Amazing work of current and past members of Ocampo Lab, collaborators, and members of the team at EPITERNA link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Very excited to share the latest paper from our laboratory where we investigated the adverse effects of in vivo reprogramming. We hope that our work can help this very promising field to move forward. Congratulations to the authors and collaborators! nature.com/articles/s4358…

🐭 DNA methylation age in Ercc1, LAKI, Polg, and Xpg mouse progeria models. Ercc1 mice, with DNA repair deficits, show significant epigenetic aging, mirroring results observed in humans. Exciting link between DNA repair and epigenetic clocks. #AgingScience #DNARepair

Happy to share our latest manuscript describing rejuvenation of cells from the mouse model of premature aging ERCC1 by partial reprogramming, even in the absence of proper DNA repair. Thank you to patrick, members of the Ocampo Lab, and collaborators! frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…
