About this Seminar This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the conceptualization and measurement of biological aging, covering biomarkers, epigenetic clocks, and blood-protein-based measures. You’ll learn key machine learning techniques like lasso and ridge regression to estimate biological age using DNA methylation data. The seminar also covers managing high-dimensional omics datasets, integrating biological measures into health research, and using publicly available datasets like NHANES and Add Health. Hands-on exercises will guide you through constructing and analyzing biological age measures. Designed for researchers in social sciences, public health, and medicine, this course equips you with practical tools to study biological aging.
