The most dangerous myth in medicine is that aging is natural and therefore acceptable
Interview with @UriAlonWeizmann on his amazing paper on the “menopause cliff”
New menopause study shows abrupt shifts up to a year before the final menstrual period. Hormone therapy appears to erase much of "the cliff”. What organs were protected and can we use this information to prevent diseases?

Enjoyed meeting the amazing students & teachers at the Houston Museum of Natural Science fundraiser & award ceremony 🦖🥇👏 @hmns
Thanks!
On behalf of all our amazing lab members and alumni
👏👏👏
Congratulations to our co-founder, @DavidASinclair on 25 years of the Sinclair Lab! The lab’s research into aging biology and epigenetics has contributed to scientific understanding in this field, which has set the foundation for our approach to #EpigeneticRestoration#.

Some organs can age faster than others, raising a new question: could the oldest part of you help predict what happens next? Read more on Lifespan Magazine 📚️

Happened ~15 years ago to us: postdoc from another lab was allegedly putting a neurotoxin in our shared coffee machine. People were hospitalized. Luckily no one died. Video cameras went up immediately. Crazy is everywhere

No surprise. Because we don’t decode the body’s epigenetic information, and focus just on DNA, we’re missing the most important part
well known phenomenon.
In 2006, J. Craig Venter, the first person to have his genome fully decoded, put it this way:
"It's not a 'so what,' but it's certainly not 'Aha!' either,"

Very nice work - standing on your shoulders
Fascinating paper in Science by Blaise Mariner, Noah Snyder-Mackler and the Dog Aging Project. Blood methylation from 894 dogs shows that larger, shorter-lived dogs age faster at the epigenetic level. Dogs are a valuable model for aging research. Our best friends deserve to be rejuvenated.

Why do large dogs tend to live shorter lives than their smaller counterparts?
The answer may be written into their epigenome, according to a new study in Science. The findings reveal that larger and male dogs undergo accelerated molecular aging, with pronounced DNA methylation on the X chromosome and at transposable elements.
