pcbrainage
Brain chronological-age clock trained in dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. The original PCA and regression are composed algebraically without retraining; missing CpGs use the authors’ GSE74193 adult brain means. No age-acceleration residualization is performed.
Model weights retain the original authors' terms; the pyaging software license does not relicense them. See the original author license.
