Title: Experimental elongation of telomeres
Post by: Mbizeps on Dec 11, 2021

Hi. Can you help me to find some articles/publications related to experimental elongation of telomeres.
I heard, that for such purposes biologists use viruses. So I believe to find some articles, where I can read about this viruses and about mechanisms of their work.
Also I heard, that Elizabeth Parrish lengthened her telomeres, but I have not found any publications on this topic (what exactly were they doing).
