Scientists rejuvenate 80-year-old's cells to appear 19

Original: Scientists Made an 80-Year-Old’s Cells Look 19 Years Old. Could It Mean Aging Is Reversible?

Researchers report reprogramming cells from an 80-year-old person so that they resemble those of a 19-year-old, a result that is fueling debate over whether aspects of aging could one day be reversed. Coverage is driving interest in cellular reprogramming techniques, though experts caution that rejuvenating cells in a lab is far from proving aging can be undone in living humans.

Why now: A striking claim about reversing cellular aging is sparking curiosity and debate about anti-aging science.
