Australian and US researchers hope an anti-ageing compound could be trialled on humans as early as next year, following a key breakthrough that saw the ageing process reversed in mice.
The study, involving Harvard University and the University of NSW, discovered a way of restoring the efficiency of cells, completely reversing the ageing process in muscles.
Wow. Very much related to some of our recent conversations. I had heard about the work with mice, but had no idea they were this close to human trials.

I see you’ve been doing some research since my last visit.
Its always an eye opener in science these days – every week anyway.

Thanks. Your comment the other day was fascinating, but I fear I can’t take credit for any real research. This Guardian article just happened to pop up in one of my feeds.

I’m grateful for the sentiment, and for the conversation. Although I’m not a believer, and sometimes have conversations about that, I hope I’ve never said anything to make you as a believer feel unwelcome. I relish conversations with anyone interested in reality, even if we disagree.
