  <dc:title>Comprehensive Batch Effect Diagnostics and Harmonization</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package ComBatFamQC version 1.0.6</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Provides a comprehensive framework for batch effect diagnostics, harmonization, and post-harmonization downstream analysis. Features include interactive visualization tools, robust statistical tests, and a range of harmonization techniques. Additionally, 'ComBatFamQC' enables the creation of life-span age trend plots with estimated age-adjusted centiles and facilitates the generation of covariate-corrected residuals for analytical purposes. Methods for harmonization are based on approaches described in Johnson et al., (2007) &lt;doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxj037&gt;, Beer et al., (2020) &lt;doi:10.1016/j.neuroimage.2020.117129&gt;, Pomponio et al., (2020) &lt;doi:10.1016/j.neuroimage.2019.116450&gt;, and Chen et al., (2021) &lt;doi:10.1002/hbm.25688&gt;.</dc:description>
