Methylation biology
How do measurements connect with underlying biological processes?
RESEARCH & COLLABORATION
Curiosity, supported
by scientific context.
Explore epigenetic research, consider the questions it raises and connect with CES about potential collaborations.
Questions that
guide the inquiry.
These themes connect the society’s educational focus with broader questions in epigenetic research.
Aging measurement
What do different biomarkers estimate, and in which contexts?
Potential applications
What additional evidence is needed before research findings inform decisions?
SELECTED RESEARCH READING
Read the study.
Explore the question.
Explore selected scientific reading, separate from the course curriculum. Each topic links to its original publication.
AGING MEASUREMENT
What contributes to an epigenetic clock’s accuracy?
Nature Aging · 2024
A study uses simulation models and DNA methylation datasets to examine the role of stochastic changes in epigenetic age prediction.
EPIGENETIC APPLICATIONS
DNA methylation and recurrent pregnancy loss
Epigenetics · 2023
Researchers investigated methylation biomarkers in sperm samples from men in couples experiencing recurrent pregnancy loss.
