Interesting article; Thanks for sharing it, Dr. Gavrilov.

I am glad we seem to be getting more and more ink as of late.

Damn, that was a great column. I wrote about it on my blog (I also included a link to the corrections you posted). I've written about quite a few anti-aging articles in the media, but this was by far the most positive one.

A commenter named Jeff mentioned how "pain is a constant companion as you get older." Something I feel as well. I tried to post a comment explaining that rejuvenation is a goal as well as longevity, but it did not show up yet.

Maybe they have to approve it first? I know some sites do that. We should all totally post comments, though.

Greetings,

Just to alert you that this story is now re-published another newspaper (Windsor Star), under a different title:

"Forever young? The quest for human longevity"

and

Hope it helps,

Best wishes,
