Thanks to mkagenius for using a reasonable title. Sadly, the actual article went with the tabloid-style "First Gene Therapy Successful Against Human Aging."

  "... Successful Against Aging in White Cells in a Human" would be more accurate while also preserving the informative aspect. Most people don't know that Telomeres directly connect to human aging.

    "Most people don't know that Telomeres directly connect to human aging." As far as I know, it isn't entirely settled that they do ...which is why the title is misleading. I guess it will be hard to argue against if Elizabeth Parish pulls a Benjamin Button.

    Not sure about that with the HN audience. I have only the most passing interest in biology and aging research but I automatically made the association.

    Anyone that watched Gundam Seed Destiny does. :)
