TITLE: "Predicting Biological Aging from Epigenetics." ABSTRACT: Epigenetics are a proven measure of cellular health. Therefore, a field of research has emerged that utilizes epigenetics to measure, treat, and potentially reverse biological age in humans. Specifically, DNA methylation, responsible for cell differentiation and gene expression, has the potential to be a barcode for measuring biological […]

TITLE: "Comprehensive study of gene expression outliers and their regulation mechanisms in pan-cancer." ABSTRACT: Cancer is a disease characterized by remarkable heterogeneity. Gene expression varies drastically between tumours and within cells of a single. This variability can generate extreme outliers: transcripts that show atypically high gene expression in a small percentage of cancers. These outliers […]
