Heavy alcohol use can speed up biological aging. ⏳ Epigenetic clocks show that those with an alcohol use disorder may age faster at the cellular level, with GrimAge V2 linking alcohol use to key aging markers. #Epigenetics #Alcohol #ACER

Alcohol and aging: Next‐generation epigenetic clocks predict biological age acceleration in individuals with alcohol use disorder
Our study investigated the performance of five epigenetic clocks by evaluating associations with alcohol use disorder (AUD) and various alcohol-related phenotypes. Both DNAm GrimAge versions were ass...

I truly think people don’t realize how many universities and colleges — especially public ones — may shut down if restrictions on and withholding of federal funding persists for even one presidency

The Hardest Part of Bioinformatics? Naming Files
1/ What’s the most challenging thing in bioinformatics? It’s not coding. It’s naming files.
How many test.txt or foo.txt files do you have? Probably too many. Let’s talk about better file naming practices.

The lushly illustrated "Map of Plants" by @dominicwalliman.com showing all of the major families in an evolutionary tree format. Very pleasing to conceptualize all the phylogenetic groupings this way. He's got a YouTube channel & makes posters too.
