PGS Catalog Releases

The function get_releases() gets you information about PGS Catalog releases; namely, the number of newly released polygenic scores, publications and performance metrics, as well as their respective associated identifiers (i.e., new pgs_ids, pgp_ids and ppm_ids).

Latest release of the PGS Catalog

To get information about the latest release, run get_releases() with default argument values:
