The "epigenetic clocks" are a way to estimate a person's age by looking at specific patterns in their DNA. These patterns are related to how certain parts of the DNA molecule are chemically modified. Currently, these "epigenetic clocks" are considered to be the most accurate way to predict a person's age.

"Epigenetic clocks" are tools that can determine a person's age by analyzing certain chemical modifications on their DNA. By studying specific parts of the DNA molecule, scientists can accurately predict a person's age. These "epigenetic clocks" are currently the most reliable and precise method for estimating someone's age.
Answered by GPT 3.5
"Epigenetic clocks" are biological markers that help determine a person's age. They are based on the DNA methylation patterns at specific sites called cytosine-guanine (CpG) sites. DNA methylation refers to the addition of a methyl group to the DNA molecule, which can affect how genes are expressed. Scientists have observed correlations between age and these DNA methylation patterns at CpG sites. By analyzing these patterns, they can create a mathematical model or "epigenetic clock" that accurately predicts a person's age. Currently, these epigenetic clocks are considered the most reliable and precise age predictors available in the field of biology.
