Australian scientist Professor Elizabeth Blackburn discovered that telomeres, small DNA caps at the end of chromosomes, protect DNA from damage. She showed that an enzyme called telomerase repairs telomeres, keeping DNA "young". Her breakthroughs have revolutionized understanding of aging, and several telomerase-based drugs are in clinical trials.
