How Fast Are You Really Aging? | DunedinPACE Epigenetic Clock Explained

For this project, I partnered with researchers at Duke University to create an explainer video explaining DunedinPACE, a DNA methylation–based measure of the pace of biological aging.

The challenge was translating a highly technical scientific tool into a story that felt clear, engaging, and visually dynamic for general audiences. I worked closely with the research team to develop the script, structuring the narrative to balance scientific accuracy with accessibility.

Because only limited original footage was available, I built the visual world primarily through carefully selected stock footage and simple motion graphics. To help explain abstract ideas such as methylation, biomarkers, and the difference between biological and chronological age, I designed simple animations that clarified the science while supporting the voiceover.
