They say it's good for you and can extend your life.

@basilfawlty89 yes. There are many people who want to live forever. There are a few who plan to.

@ShaythePanTransMan I personally think that negligible senescence will come via gene editing in the near future. There's already experiments on it in mice.

@basilfawlty89 what do you mean? Gene editing will cause cells to die?
basilfawlty89 · 31-35, M
@ShaythePanTransMan not exactly. With gene editing we can restore cells to youthful epigenetic levels. There are nine hallmarks of aging, if we address all nine it will reverse aging entirely.

@basilfawlty89 Oh! That’s cool. I was confused when you said senescence.
