Over a quarter of functional tissue units shifted from dense, specialized structures toward sparser ones enriched in stromal and immune cells. Third of a triptych on aging of human tissues across scales: whole tissue → microanatomy → single cells.

Counting cells is not enough to understand how tissues age. Cell density declines with age — but tissue architecture remodels largely independently of cell composition (R² = 0.07): two partly independent axes of aging.

🚨 New preprint from the Rendeiro lab! We mapped human tissue aging at single-cell resolution: 3.5 billion cells, 16 organs, 980 donors, spanning the adult lifespan. Led by @e-abila.bsky.social 📄 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Huge congratulations to co-first authors @e-abila.bsky.social @ivabuljan.bsky.social @yimin-zheng.bsky.social ! Deep thanks to our collaborators in Austria, Germany, Belgium, and Australia, who validated the clocks in independent brain, lung, and skin cohorts. 🙏

Tissue structure underlies organ function — how aging reshapes it reflects physiological decline directly, in ways molecular measurements alone cannot capture. We hope this moves us toward practical biomarkers of organ-specific aging. 🔬 rendeiro.group

"we have an obligation to create high context environments" agreed - to me that is already true with conventional workspaces. Research data and derivatives should be organized, open, FAIRified, etc - yet I don't see OpenAI focusing on that ever as it'd go against their business model

Had recently the fastest ever turnover in a manuscript we submitted. All 3 reviewer reports were for sure heavily AI-generated. All have multiple factual errors (e. g. the authors don't specify X -> it's in the manuscript), very generic and asked for 'validation' in a super broad manner 🙄

Among 100+ biological and clinical factors, age was the main driver of microanatomical changes. About 27% of domains shift in abundance over adulthood, yet others remain remarkably stable.
