Identification of 12 genetic loci associated with human healthspan

2018-04-16

Abstract excerpt

The mounting challenge of preserving the quality of life in an aging population directs the focus of longevity science to the regulatory pathways controlling healthspan. To understand the nature of the relationship between the healthspan and lifespan and uncover the genetic architecture of the two phenotypes, we studied the incidence of major age-related diseases in the UK Biobank (UKB) cohort. We observed that th...
