We benchmarked 8 scATAC-seq data processing pipelines for their performance in clustering, predicting gene activities, and integrating with scRNA-seq. Check our Genome Biology paper if you want to know how to better analyze your scATAC-seq data! doi.org/10.1186/s13059…

New publication by the von Meyenn lab and collaborators! We developed scEpiAge, a single-cell DNA methylation age predictor, which highlights epigenetic heterogeneity during ageing. Check out the paper here: nature.com/articles/s4146…

The study introduces #scEpiAge to predict age from single-cell DNA methylation, highlighting epigenetic age variation.

Ferdinand von Meyenn, head of the Nutrition and Metabolic Epigenetics Group at ETH Zurich, will be sharing his cutting-edge research at #AEpiA2024 Don’t miss out - early bird pricing closes tomorrow! Visit AEpiA.org.au/conferences #epigenetics

New publication! We explored the link between diet quality and epigenetic age, showing how healthier diets and adequate vitamin intake can slow biological aging, offering new insights into nutrition's role in shaping health and longevity! shorturl.at/jChJ4🥦🧬#aging #DNAm

Dr. Fengzheng Gao won the Spark grant from the Swiss National Science Foundation. He will work on microalgae engineering for iron-deficiency anaemia treatment, hosted by the ETH Zurich Laboratory of Nutrition and Metabolic Epigenetics and the Sustainable Food Processing Group.

Anyone who has ever tried to get rid of a few extra kilos knows the frustration: the weight drops initially, only to be back within a matter of weeks – the yo-yo effect has struck. Researchers at ETH Zurich have now shown that this is down to epigenetics. ethz.ch/en/news-and-ev…

🧵1/8 🚨 Just out! Our latest study reveals that fat cells actually “remember” obesity—even after major weight loss (WL). Could this “memory” explain why keeping the weight off is so hard? nature.com/articles/s4158… 👇

New nature A mechanism for why durable weight loss is so difficult: epigenetic memory of fat cells nature.com/articles/s4158… Ferdinand von Meyenn Laura Hinte

Even after drastic weight loss, the body’s fat cells carry the ‘memory’ of obesity go.nature.com/3YRR9nr

Fresh off the press! My paper from my PhD is finally out in nature. We discover an epigenetic memory in adipocytes of obesity that persists post weight loss. vonmeyennlab Adhideb Ghosh

New in nature🧬: We discovered why keeping weight off is so challenging - fat cells retain an epigenetic #memory of their previous state, even after weight loss. This helps explain the biology behind weight regain. Excited to share our newest work! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Great collaborative work with Laura Hinte and Daniel Castellano from vonmeyennlab is out now!

We show that this behaviour relates to a PRC2 driven phenomenon that resembles wetting of fluids. Check out the preprint to find out more. By Aida Hashtroud with Reik Lab Ferdinand von Meyenn Oliver Stegle and Mark Jan Bonder. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
