This phenomenon became known as \u201cThe Hayflick Limit\u201d which became a discovery that overturned a dogma that existed since early in the twentieth century and focused attention on the cell as the fundamental location of age changes.<\/p>\n<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"> <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/lifeboat.com\/blog\/2020\/12\/dr-leonard-hayflick-cellular-senescence-mycoplasmology-and-viral-vaccine-development\">Continue reading \u201cDr. Leonard Hayflick \u2014 Cellular Senescence, Mycoplasmology, and Viral Vaccine Development\u201d | ><\/a><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr leonard hayflick \u2014 father of cell senescence!
