UCF brain cell research spawns hope for longer life

Abstract:
A molecular biologist and a nanoscientist at the University of Central Florida have found that nanomaterials developed for industry have an unexpected and potentially revolutionary side effect: They can triple or quadruple the life of brain cells. The result is people could live longer and with fewer age-related health problems.
