  "summary": "Scientists have reprogrammed blood-cell precursors from an 80-year-old donor into neural stem cells with an epigenetic age below 20, according to a study published in Aging Cell. The process unfolded gradually over more than 100 days, offering researchers a way to investigate cellular rejuvenation and its potential implications for ageing and Alzheimer's research.",
