# cvdwesterman
Whole-blood DNA-methylation score for cardiovascular risk. The paper's final cross-study learner stacks cohort-specific elastic-net Cox models; the packaged pyaging implementation is a 235-CpG linear score followed by a sigmoid.
Model weights retain the original authors' terms; the pyaging software license does not relicense them.
