    Yeah it was confusing and I had to read the source article a couple of times. If I’m recalling correctly I think the mouse model they’re referring to used gene splicing to reverse aging in-vivo—which to my understanding is a hell of a lot riskier and invasive than a molecular/biochemical based technique as described by the primary researchers (but only done in vitro). I would’ve been impressed if they used a biochemical technique in vivo because that would mean they had solved an issue of drug delivery, which is the thing that’ll halt the progress of this stuff becoming mainstream.
