# vidalbralo

Eight-CpG whole-blood chronological-age estimator selected by forward stepwise regression in 390 adults and calibrated by multiple linear regression; CpGs were chosen for compatibility with a single multiplex MS-SNuPE assay.

Model weights retain the original authors' terms; the pyaging software license does not relicense them.
