The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.
These findings unify two theories of aging that are still perceived as competing or non-compatible, and offer an avenue for developing a next generation of aging clocks that take both DNA-mutation and DNA-methylation phenomenon into account to generate better predictions of biological age.
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.

As we age, we accumulate somatic mutations in our cells (mutation clock) and DNA methylation changes (epigenetic clock). They correlate and interact
