Harvard scientists reverse the ageing process in mice

Harvard scientists reverse the ageing process in mice – now for humans
Harvard scientists were surprised that they saw a dramatic reversal, not just a slowing down, of the ageing in mice. Now they believe they might be able to regenerate human organs.

Scientists claim to be a step closer to reversing the ageing process after rejuvenating worn out organs in elderly mice. The experimental treatment developed by researchers at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School, turned weak and feeble old mice into healthy animals by regenerating their aged bodies.

Sure they can slow down the aging of the bodies, but the mind can still deteriorate

It would still be good though, for someone who's organs fail halfway through or at the start of their life! :) pessimistic bastards! :P
