There’s been some good medical breakthroughs in the last few years, against older age issues. Could we be seeing the average life expectancy suddenly jump up 10 years very soon.
If it turns out to be a product that can be introduced to the affected population, this is fantastic news.
This, combined with recent advances in cancer treatments, will alter humanity’s lifespan and present many challenges that we have yet to consider.

I admire the enthusiasm for science, but I wish that all news stories like this included a link to the published work (academic journal) on which the information was based. It’s nice that you say there’s potential, but let me be the one to test it.
In a breakthrough that could improve the health of millions of survivors worldwide, British researchers have developed a biodegradable gel to repair damage caused by a heart attack.
Only 1% of cells injected into the heart to reduce the risk of heart failure have remained in place and survived until now. The gel, on the other hand, can keep them in place while they graft on to the heart.

I wonder how far in the future this will be used?
