German scientists reset blood cells from an 80-year-old to a molecular age under 20

Researchers at the hospital and university of Bonn in Germany announced they had successfully reprogrammed blood cells from an 80-year-old person into neural stem cells with a molecular age of less than 20 years. The significance of the result lies in showing that the age of cells can be reversed at the molecular level.
