What the project is doing
Cleara anti-senescence programme is being developed as part of the wider effort to prevent, delay or repair age-related decline.
What this could do for you
If it works, it could remove or quiet damaged cells that build up with age and disturb the healthy cells around them.
What has to happen next
The next checkpoint is a reproducible result strong enough to justify human testing.
What could stop it
Results in cells or animals often fail in people, and the route to a safe human treatment can take many years.
