They used molecular dynamics simulations to compare radiation damage accumulation in two ceramics and determined three requirements for the ideal radiation - tolerant ceramic: (pnnl.gov)
That call was made based on the evidence arising from many fields of medical research, and from a considered perspective of aging as a process of damage accumulation, one that can be most effectively treated by repair of that damage. (fightaging.org)
In this study, partial reprogramming of cells in vitro reduced DNA damage accumulation and restored nuclear structure. (sciencedaily.com)
