DNA marks are more variable in older rhesus macaque brains

An observational analysis of 86 hippocampus samples spanning about 3–35 years linked older age to greater variation in chemical marks on DNA.An observational analysis of 86 hippocampus samples spanning about 3–35 years linked older age to greater variation in chemical marks on DNA.
