Correction: Suppression of transcriptional drift extends C. elegans lifespan by postponing the onset of mortality

We would like to thank David Angeles as he brought it to our attention that the variance equation (3) we provided in the original article was erroneous.

The equation in the published article read:

$${\displaystyle dv=\frac{1}{n-1}+{\sum }_{i=1}^n\left({\text{td}}_{\text{i}}-\overline{\mathrm{t}\mathrm{d}}\right)}$$ (3)

It should have read:

$${\displaystyle driftvariance=\frac{1}{n-1}{\sum }_{i=1}^n{\left({\text{td}}_{\text{i}}-\overline{\mathrm{t}\mathrm{d}}\right)}^2}$$ (3)

We apologize for any confusion that may have occurred.

The article has been corrected accordingly.
