Abstract
We measured walking speed in baboons (67 female, 36 male; 5-22 years) to develop regression formulas to predict biological age. The final model strongly predicted age from just speed and sex. Walking speed is a valuable baboon aging biomarker. We present the first male speed data in a nonhuman primate.Entities:
