Youth Aggression Cohort Catalogue

cohorts included

The Youth Aggression Cohort Catalog is a harmonized, FAIR-aligned resource that systematically maps large, genetically informed cohorts assessing aggressive behavior in individuals under 18 years of age. 

Using an automated literature search combined with large language model–based cohort extraction and rigorous human curation, we identified over 40 accessible cohorts worldwide, representing approximately 850,000 participants.

This catalog addresses fragmentation in aggression research by providing a centralized overview of cohorts with validated aggression phenotypes and available genetic data, enabling large-scale, cross-cohort, and developmental analyses of aggression in youth.
