An Ancient Genetic Switch for Hibernation Has Always Lived in Your DNA, and Scientists Are Finally Learning to Turn It On

Scientists found humans may share ancient hibernation-related DNA with bears and bats, revealing genetic links to metabolism and recovery. For decades, the ability of hibernating animals to survive months of near-total metabolic shutdown, and recover without lasting harm, has been one of biology’s most tantalizing puzzles. Now, researchers say the genetic instructions behind that resili... [4978 chars]
