I&#x27;m trained as a biologist and in complete agreement, this is a press stunt with no substance.<p>A couple further questions -<p>In a longitudinal study testing telomere length in a large human cohort, 44% of people had longer telomeres than when they were 10 years younger (and 10 years is a lot of aging!)
<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;journals.plos.org&#x2F;plosgenetics&#x2F;article?id=10.1371&#x2F;journal.pgen.1004191" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;journals.plos.org&#x2F;plosgenetics&#x2F;article?id=10.1371&#x2F;jou...</a>
...So even if her telomeres did get longer, how confident can we be that is at all related to the gene therapy?<p>Instrument &#x2F; sample variability in SpectraCell measurements. Is there any data on this? How significant is a change from 6.71kb to 7.33kb anyways?
