There is also some really interesting epigenetics research focusing on age-related disease.
For example, Steve Horvath's group at UCLA has been refining an "epigenetic clock" using DNA methylation data to predict all-cause mortality in several species with a relatively simple test. It has the potential to be an incredibly valuable metric in the field going forward.
