Woman undergoes anti-ageing gene therapy: Report
Elizabeth Parrish, the CEO of Seattle-based biotech company BioViva, claims to have undergone a successful gene therapy against human ageing. The experimental treatment, developed by BioViva itself and yet to be independently verified, elongated Parrish’s 20 years of telomeres, or chromosome caps that otherwise shorten with age. If confirmed, this will be the first such treatment against ageing.
