Novel epigenetic clock for fetal brain development predicts prenatal age for cellular stem cell models and derived neurons

Abstract Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and their differentiated neurons (iPSC-neurons) are a widely used cellular model in the research of the central nervous system. However, it is unknown how well they capture age-associated processes, particularly given that pluripotent cells are only pr...
