Have you ever wanted to stay young a little longer and put off aging? This is a dream of the ages. You just wear out, there’s nothing you can do about it.
Slow down aging.
Instead, we studied a little, tiny, round worm called C. elegans, which is just about the size of a comma in a sentence. Mutations that damage one single gene called daf-2 doubled the lifespan of the little worm.
A whole lot of genes are switched on in the DNA that encode proteins that protect the cells.
Dream begins to come true. Thank you.
