Do you want a cheap (<$5) but highly accurate #aging biomarker that can be used in large experiments? Read our #preprint on TIME-Seq, a new method for inexpensive and scalable epigenetic age predictions. #clocks #longevity @davidasinclair biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Epigenetic “clocks” based on DNA methylation are the most robust and widely used aging biomarker. However, conventional approaches (methylation chip or RRBS) are hundreds of $$ per sample and low throughput.
We wanted to routinely use epigenetic clocks in large studies for low cost. So, we developed Tagmentation-based Indexing for Methylation Sequencing (TIME-Seq) for scalable and inexpensive targeted methylation sequencing of DNA methylation biomarkers.

Who am I? I am no dummy, with a PhD in math and a doctor of science in biostatistics. I am best known for figuring out aging isn't random. If I get hold of some of your DNA, I can tell you how many years you have left to live. #longevity #clocks lifespanbook.com Image
Steve Horvath is, of course, most well known for his work on how DNA methylation can be used to measure aging, also known as the Horvath Clock.
Horvath isn't the only person to connect methylation to aging. His findings have been aligned to discoveries made by Trey Ideker and Kang Zhang, but Steve's work has been seminal, and his name stuck.
