Epigenetic Clock
An epigenetic clock is a mathematical model that estimates biological age based on specific DNA methylation patterns across the genome. These clocks provide highly accurate predictions of age and are strong predictors of morbidity, mortality, and functional decline. Accelerated epigenetic age—when epigenetic age exceeds chronological age—is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer, neurodegeneration, and frailty. Epigenetic clocks are widely used in aging research to evaluate interventions, lifestyle effects, and disease progression. Recent developments include tissue-specific clocks and clocks that predict healthspan rather than age alone. Epigenetic clocks have become essential tools in longevity science, enabling objective measurement of aging dynamics and intervention efficacy.
