1. "We hope we could affect those targets and improve not just lifespan but also health span – the period of a person‘s life when they can be healthy and not suffer age–related illnesses." The researchers said the discovery of the genes in yeast and the ringworms – Caenorhabditis elegans – was important because the two organisms were 1.5billion years apart in terms of evolution.
2. Experiments on simpler organisms, such as the millimeter–long soil–dwelling nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans , indicate that in some species a change in a single gene can double life span –– though in that case we‘re talking about a total of six weeks.
