Abstract
Aging is the most significant risk factor for Parkinson’s disease (PD), yet its role in PD pathogenesis remains underexplored. The challenges linked to modeling PD in commonly used rodent models, coupled with the prolonged timelines required for aging studies, have hindered progress in this critical area. The International Network for Parkinson’s Disease Modelling and Aging (PD-AGE), funded by the Michael J. Fox Foundation, was established to address these challenges. Through collaborative efforts, PD-AGE developed a roadmap to reach consensus on experimental approaches, prioritize suitable models, and standardize protocols to investigate the intersection of aging and PD. This initiative advocates for prioritizing the crossing of mouse PD models with incomplete penetrance, including genetic (Pink1, Lrrk2, Gba) sporadic (α-synuclein pre-formed fibril) and environmental (paraquat) models, with well described accelerated aging models showing dopaminergic neuron vulnerability (Ercc1-/Δ, Nfkb1-/- ). We proposed that a tiered approach to experimental testing will enable systematic and rigorous characterization of these models, offering efficiency, economy, and further prioritization of model systems for testing specific hypotheses. By fostering collaboration and optimizing resource utilization, this roadmap provides a foundation for understanding the synergistic effects of aging and PD. It aims to accelerate mechanistic insights and refine preclinical models, ultimately supporting the development of interventions that address the aging-related dimensions of PD pathogenesis.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
