Recent work from the lab led by post doc @drhubert.bsky.social. In flies where selection for early reproduction has led to accelerated aging, we find repeatable metabolome evolution involving shifts in energy metabolism. “Clock” models also appear to capture signals of biological age.
Excited to share our new paper with @maphillips.bsky.social‬ ‬published in @genomebiolevol.bsky.social:
"Selection for Early Reproduction Leads to Accelerated Aging and Extensive Metabolic Remodeling in Drosophila melanogaster"

I started an Aging Research starter pack. Feels very sparse right now, so (1) let me know who I missed and (2) we need to recruit a few folks who abandoned science twitter some time ago back into the fold.

Recently learned my NIH MIRA proposal to study the factors that shape/underlie complex trait variation using Drosophila experimental evolution will be funded. Looking to fill postdoc position in the near future. Please reach out if interested.
