Development of a Noise Barometer for Measuring Epigenetic Pressure of Aging and Disease
A new priority research paper was published on the cover of Aging (listed by MEDLINE/PubMed as "Aging (Albany NY)" and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 15, Issue 17, entitled, “Fail-tests of DNA methylation clocks, and development of a noise barometer for measuring epigenetic pressure of aging and disease.” In this new study, researchers Xiaoyue Mei, Joshua Blanchard, Connor Luellen, Michael J. Conboy, and Irina M. Conboy from the University of California, Berkeley, show that Elastic Net (EN) DNA methylation (DNAme) clocks have low accuracy of predictions for individuals of the same age…
