Would you rather measure proteins directly or use DNAm-based surrogates?
Danni Gadd explores this for GDF15 and NT-proBNP and multiple incident disease outcomes in 17,000 Generation Scotland volunteers with external testing in The Lothian Birth Cohorts

Multiplex blood #proteomics using classic #MachineLearning can predict disease incidences across systems. In case you missed our previous medRxiv.

🚨New paper on epigenetic fidelity and ageing
We develop a conceptual model to explain aging based on first principles and conclude that epigenetic aging is inevitable.
Exciting work by Thomas Duffield Institute of Life Course and Medical Sciences + Inflammation and Ageing University of Oxford

Really proud of the latest work from Faith, Grant F. Marshall and Danni Gadd. We used CRISPR to introduce a V5 tag into eEF1A2 to be able to compare expression patterns of eEF1A1 and eEF1A2 in neurons 1/4

Delighted to share Yipeng's paper looking at DNAm EpiScores for Type 2 diabetes in Generation Scotland and #KORA cohorts. Published today in Nature Aging.

Happy to share my 1st paper, in Biological Psychiatry! We investigated the links between 249 circulating metabolites & Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) in UK Biobank. A thread 🧵 of our main findings:👇
Great to join Hannah on the Hannah Went podcast. We discuss what DNA methylation is, the importance of the circulating proteome and how these measures were integrated in my PhD to create new markers for disease prediction. Generation Scotland Institute of Genetics and Cancer
It has been fantastic to collaborate on this. For a detailed comparison of methylation vs polygenic risk scoring approaches and applications, check out our latest review Genome Biology.
💡 moments today. Thanks Danni from MarioniGroup for sharing how they use Generation Scotland data from Volunteers to predict the onset of diseases & how DNA methylation can be reversed through lifestyle changes.
