Engineering is continuously redefining and transforming the world around us. We bring you the most up to date information on how these changes are being made and what their impact is.
Babraham Institute researchers used a 13-day partial reprogramming method with Yamanaka factors to reset adult skin cells’ molecular clocks by roughly three decades. The rejuvenated fibroblasts produced more collagen and closed lab-grown wounds faster while keeping their original cell identity. Could this breakthrough open the door to future anti-aging therapies?
