The scientific team of the academic Miroslav Radman are examining very resistant organisms. They are on their way to isolating small molecules that protect all proteins, including special “protein doctors” that maintain life. Thanks to them, they consider, they could find the “elixir of youth”.

“We think that we have put a finger on the chemistry of life, on what limits life” said Radman to the press in Zagreb. The conference was during day one of a two day symposium commemorating 50 years of molecular biology, at which he will reveal his discovery tomorrow.
