Buck Institute

AI is transforming biology—but only if we can trust it. Buck is partnering with Fennec Engineering to help build the safety infrastructure for AI-driven biological research, advancing innovation with safety at its core. 🔗 buckinstitute.org/news/the-buck-… #BioAI #AI #Healthspan

Dr. Michael Stout from the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation visited us on Friday for an exciting seminar on several research projects on sex differences in aging, reproductive longevity, and metabolic health. @OMRF

We were honored to host Dr. Gabriele Zaffagnini @zaffagg3 who visited us from CECAD in Cologne, and spoke about his exciting work on proteostasis in mammalian oocytes.

In the final episode of season 3 of the Buck Podcast we answer your biggest aging questions, from whether there is a single root cause of aging to why different organs fail in different ways, and much more. buckinstitute.org/podcasts/

Hot off Buck Blog press! Meet Dr. Parminder Singh from @KapahiLab. Dr. Singh's research explores how communication between organs influences biology of aging, uncovering new insights into mechanisms that drive health and longevity. buckinstitute.org/blog/faces-of-… @Parminder_S94

New Buck podcast dropped today! Filtering Out Aging with guest @Younggren. What if removing and replacing part of your blood could turn back some of the measurable signs of aging?

Great tribute to Tom Johnson who discovered the first gene related to #aging, and a wonderful overview of the field by the Buck’s Simon Melov. Thanks to @COPublicRadio for doing the story! cpr.org/2026/06/08/agi…

Another full house at the Buck today! Guest speaker is Executive VP at Buck, Remy Gross III. He’s helping to answer this question: “So, When Will All These Breakthroughs Be in My Medicine Cabinet?” Remy Gross is trained chemist who has overseen bringing 11 drugs to market ($180B)

Life is energy organized into purpose. Aging is what happens when that organization changes. Grateful for an inspiring conversation with Martin Picard, the mitochondria guy who makes ATP sound philosophical. #FRS@Buck

Our newest Decoding Longevity episode is now live 🎙️ We were honored to be joined by Dr. Eric Verdin, President & CEO of the @BuckInstitute for Research on Aging. We discuss: • Metabolism & aging • Inflammaging • NAD+ & epigenetics • Longevity drugs vs lifestyle • Biomarkers

Formal Research Seminar at the Buck today hosted by CEO @ericverdinmd. Dr. Vera Gorbunova from @UofR discussing comparative biology of aging.

We hosted the 26th BAAM Conference at Buck yesterday, bringing together scientists across institutions to share ideas, spark collaborations, and push the boundaries of aging and metabolism research. Keynotes: Rozalyn Anderson @UWMadison and @wysscoray @Stanford @kapahi_pankaj

Congrats to postdoc Olga Bielska, the winner of this year’s Impact Circle award! Our popular donor group is funding her early research aimed restoring aged human immune cells. Meet Olga and learn about the “mitochondrial switch’: buckinstitute.org/news/the-bucks…

Longevity-linked #APOE2 helps neurons repair DNA and resist #aging - the protein can also protect #APOE4 neurons. The effect might be transferable, not just genetic. It’s a new therapeutic direction for #Alzheimers buckinstitute.org/news/longevity…

This Mother's Day, give a gift as extraordinary as she is by honoring the woman who gave you everything with a tribute gift to the Buck, because the best gift is more healthy years together. Every contribution brings us closer to a longer healthier future buckinstitute.org/donate/

Another full house today at our monthly community seminar! Our guest today is Dr @NathanPriceSci. By combining big data, advanced AI, and deep biological insights, Dr. Price is uncovering how genetics, lifestyle, and environment interact over time to drive aging and disease.

We’re all in when it comes to AI’s potential to drive efforts to extend #healthspan. How will it work? Check out this #TEDtalk by our very own @NathanPriceSci. tedai-sanfrancisco.ted.com/speakers/natha… #AI

Hot off the Buck Blog Press! This month we're featuring Dr. Chaska Walton, recipient of $2.4m NIH Transformative Research Award for his work on development of smart delivery systems to treat multiple pathologies of Alzheimer’s disease. buckinstitute.org/blog/faces-of-…
