The paper examines developmental correlates of epigenetic and polygenic indices of cognition and education from birth to young adulthood, finding Epigenetic-g is plastic in early childhood and captures distinct variation from polygenic indices.

The paper describes the curation and initial analysis of molecular genetic and epigenetic data from the TwinLife study, highlighting associations between polygenic scores and attrition, and stability of epigenetic clocks in saliva.

The paper updates a polygenic index repository with more phenotypes, datasets, and improved causal inference methods, enhancing predictive performance and interpretability.

This study examines genetic and environmental influences on epigenetic aging variance across adolescence and young adulthood using twin data and four aging estimators.
