Multivariate genomic scan implicates novel loci and haem metabolism in human ageing - Nature Communications
Ageing phenotypes are of great interest but are difficult to study genetically, partly due to the sample sizes required. Here, the authors present a multivariate framework to combine GWAS summary statistics and increase statistical power, identifying additional loci enriched for aging.

Seems that this study confirms a link between excess iron and aging. I’ve just read a synopsis on another website, not the full paper yet.
