The Journal Club is a monthly livestream hosted by Dr. Oliver Medvedik which covers the latest aging research papers.
The Journal Club returns on Friday October 27th at 11:30 am Eastern time on the Lifespan.io Facebook page.  We will be discussing the new paper from Conboy et al. which examines current DNA methylation clocks and their limitations in the context of aging. They also developed a "noise barometer" to measure the epigenetic impact of...
Foreground Clock
Publishing in Aging, the Conboy research lab has outlined the problems with existing machine learning-based clocks and created a new clock based on epigenetic noise. The problem with linear regression This paper begins with a description of the elastic net, an artificial intelligence algorithm that powers the majority of biological clocks, including the Horvath biological...
Conboy Interview
Today, we are talking with Dr. Irina Conboy, Editor-in-Chief of the journal Rejuvenation Research about impact and other aspects of journal publishing. This journal is an important academic publication for our field and publishes many papers focused on aging and rejuvenation research. Hi, Irina, and thanks for taking the time to talk to us. Could...
Elderly Blood Draw
Published in GeroScience, a groundbreaking study from the renowned Conboy lab has confirmed that plasma dilution leads to systemic rejuvenation against multiple proteomic aspects of aging in human beings. Systemic molecular excess This paper takes the view that much of aging is driven by systemic molecular excess. Signaling molecules, antibodies, and toxins, which gradually accumulate...
EARD2021 Irina Conboy
At Ending Age-Related Diseases 2021, Irina Conboy discussed the effects of plasma dilution and heterochronic plasma exchange and their relationship to epigenetic alterations. Script Thank you for inviting me again, it's much appreciated. This is an excellent conference series. I will start by telling you that it is my deep belief that the path to...
Electric brain
There has been a great deal of interest in the last few years in the potential regenerative properties of blood factors. This has led to two broad schools of thought: one in which there are regenerative factors in young blood that can be isolated, and another in which aged blood contains regenerative factors that cannot...
