That it is possible to produce aging clocks from omics data, that some omics changes map very well to chronological age, biological age, and risk and presence of age-related disease, has been used to argue for aging to be an evolved program. Researchers here use a modeling approach to show that random events, the accumulation of molecular damage, can still produce the outcome observed in aging clocks.

Aging clocks have provided one of the most important recent breakthroughs in the biology of aging, and may provide indicators for the effectiveness of interventions in the aging process and preventive treatments for age-related diseases. The re…
