The Sheekey Science Show | Single cell epigenetic clocks & applications - Alex Trapp @TheSheekeyScienceShow | Uploaded January 2022 | Updated October 2024, 4 days ago.
In this video we take a deep dive into the recent publication in Nature Aging, "Profiling epigenetic age in single cells", with the lead author of the paper Alex Trapp!

We discuss the difference between biological and chronological age, how epigenetic clocks work, the challenges of measuring the age of a single cell and then scAge and its applications.
