A @NatureComms article suggests that Southwestern South America, Mediterranean Europe, and Northern Africa face a high likelihood of unprecedented drought conditions within the next 30 years regardless of the emission scenarios. https://t.co/8LHYMO0DMx

Our new @NatureAging paper: We built 14 "biological clocks" representing the biological age and rate of aging of 14 major body systems using data from 13,000 people of the Human Phenotype Project

Key findings:

1. Biological clocks are clinically meaningful: People with higher biological age for some body system are at greater risk for disease related to that body system (e.g., higher aging rate of insulin resistance associates with higher risk for diabetes)

2. Surprisingly, biological clocks for different body systems are mostly independent, i.e., a person with a higher rate of aging for one body system does not necessarily have higher aging rates in other body systems

3. Males and females age differently: While males age linearly, females exhibit a sharp non-linear increase between the ages 50-55. This sharp increase is associated with menopause. When comparing pre- and post-menopausal females of the same chronological age, we find that post-menopausal females have higher biological age for several body systems

Know an undergraduate who wants to pursue a  neuroscience PhD? @WUSTL_ENDURE empowers participants in their path to graduate school and beyond. Includes $7000 per summer, travel, housing, two scientific meetings/year. Applications due by Feb. 3, 2025. https://t.co/Z7PeF8NW38

[Itai Yanai @ItaiYanai]

There are ~40k postdocs in the US, according to the NIH. While PhD students generally have good support (their committees, external advisors, and classmates), the postdocs do not. To help with this, we're starting the 'Postdoc Night Science' club with a first branch in NYC. ⬇️
