THE TIMES: Secret to staying alive (and lively) at 110 is in the blood

Press/Media: Expert comment

Description

 

 

Prof Dan Davis, an expert in immunology at the University, is quoted in The Times. Prof Davis comments on new research from Japan which has investigated why supercentenarians – people over the age of 100 – tend to have good health up until their death. It has been linked to unusually high levels of an immune cell, though Prof Davis cautions that this may be a result of, rather than a cause of, longevity.
