Description

Could it be possible for people to reset their internal clocks and live to 110? Scientists like Kenyon of the Hillblom Center for the Biology of Aging think so. Through her groundbreaking research with roundworms, she discovered disabling a single gene doubled the lifespan of the worm. Kenyon makes a compelling case on how it might be possible to improve the health span of a person and delay the effects of aging and age-related diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease.
