Cynthia Kenyon, a structural biologist at University of California at San Francisco, was able to suppress a single gene in worms extending their normal life span six fold. Usually these worms live about 20 days. Her worms lived more than 120 days plus they remained robust almost until they died. She's working on creating a human antiaging pill. So...until the pill is perfected, keep taking that vacation.
