Papers Unplugged: CHIP and Associated Risk in Elderly Patients

What is clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) and its associated risks in elderly patients?

Join our guest Prof Kirsten Gronbaek and host Dr Christian Scharenberg as they discuss CHIP, its biological significance, frequency in the general population, and its association with epigenetic age.

Listen along as Prof Gronbaek dives deeper into the subject and explains the association and significance of CHIP with mutations and patient survival. Last but not least, Prof Gronbaek talks about the challenges and current landscape of trials and studies on treatment for CHIP.

This discussion is based on the recently published article Clonal Hematopoiesis and Epigenetic Age Acceleration in Elderly Danish Twins in HemaSphere.


Host: Dr Christian Scharenberg; Guest: Professor Kirsten Gronbaek


This is the third of a series of podcasts discussing recently published scientific articles. More podcasts will be available in the future. Stay tuned!
