DunedinPACE

DunedinPACE (https://github.com/danbelsky/DunedinPACE) David Corcoran developer. Maintained by Calen Ryan and Karen Sugden. Package allows users to compute the DunedinPACE DNA methylation measure of the Pace of Aging using Illumina 450k or EPIC array data (Belsky et al. 2022 eLife). See our publications page for recent findings with DunedinPACE and more at MoffittCaspi Lab here

BioAge

BioAge (https://github.com/dayoonkwon/BioAge) Dayoon Kwon developer. Package allows users to develop and evaluate measures of biological age using the methods proposed by Klemera and Doubal (KDMBA), Levine (PhenoAge), and Cohen (homeostatic dysregulation) and data from the US NHANES to apply novel and published biological age algorithms in user-supplied data  (Kwon et al. 2021 Geroscience)
