About us
Novato’s Buck Institute is the largest independent scientific institute in the Bay Area. The Buck aims to end the threat of age-related diseases for this and future generations by bringing together the most capable and passionate scientists from a broad range of disciplines to identify and impede the ways in which we age. Its goal is to increase human healthspan, or the healthy years of life. Globally recognized as the pioneer and leader in efforts to target aging, the number one risk factor for serious diseases including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, cancer, macular degeneration, heart disease, and diabetes, the Buck wants to help people live better longer.

Discovery in Nature may change future approaches to early detection of breast cancers. Study finds healthy breast tissue can contain normal cells with genetic changes found in invasive #breastcancer, highlighting the challenges and risks of false positives in screening. https://lnkd.in/gNE5wbi8

Males and females have profoundly different #sleep patterns. New study Scientific Reports shows females sleep less, wake up more often and get less restorative sleep than males. Females are still underrepresented in preclinical sleep research. Too bad. https://lnkd.in/grUVCqGs

Wow. There’s a leap in understanding the human body. Researchers with the Human Cell Atlas (HCA) consortium have published a collection of more than 40 papers in @Nature, mapping adult tissues and organs, developing tissues and new #AI techniques. https://lnkd.in/eCNeb7-Y
