🧵1/5: Thrilled to share our latest paper in Nature Aging ! nature.com/articles/s4358…

Season 2, Episode 7 - The Power of Single-Cell Epigenetic Profiling with Alex Trapp We explore the cutting-edge development of single-cell epigenetic clocks and their potential applications in the field of longevity science. Episode here - open.spotify.com/episode/24Oy7Q…



Thanks for highlighting our work! nature.com/articles/s4358… with this spot on piece of #News&Views Nature Aging

Thanks Elsa Logarinho ! ❤️🙏🏻

🎉 Thrilled to share our work in Nature Communications! We found centenarians have (slightly) fewer harmful genetic variants - suggesting depletion of damaging mutations contributes to exceptional longevity. Incredible collaboration with Nir Barzilai, Zhengdong Zhang Sofiya Milman


glad to be a co-author of this paper profiling the transcriptomic age of single PBMC cells in humans published in Communications Biology the hard work of talented graduate student Enikő Zakar-Polyák and epigenetics aging clock expert Csaba Kerepesi (formerly of Gladyshev Lab) now of



🥳Glad to see my short perspective Nature Reviews Genetics is out today! In this piece, I discussed the application of genetic-based causal inference to identify true causal factors in aging, which may help develop more reliable biomarkers or interventions.

New online│ News and Views by José Pedro Castro, PhD on a study showing that metformin improves health markers in aged monkeys, hinting at its potential to slow aging and extend health span! #Aging 🕰️🐒 Link: 👇 nature.com/articles/s4168…


Thank you for sharing my News&Views on Metformin, Monkeys and Aging David Sinclair 😎

Some exciting news to share! Our lab is relocating to the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics (med.virginia.edu/bmg/) UVA School of Medicine in January 2025! We're actively recruiting talented postdocs to join our team. Please RT to spread the word.
