- description: In 1992, a Genova scientist astonishingly discovered that the Turritopsis jellyfish possesses what mankind has always dreamed of - immortal youth. A mature Turritopsis jellyfish will transform into a younger state if stimulated by stress or old age. In 1996, an Italian led research team further clarified that the ability of Turritopsis to revert back to youth is due to cellular transdifferentiation. The average jellyfish faces old age and death, but the Turritopsis jellyfish can live forever by repeatedly growing young whenever it becomes old. Submitted by Dr John MD, founder of NAIMION.
