When I was 16 I read about telomeres in Scientific American and became convinced of their fundamental importance to cell division and cellular senescence. A few years ago I defended my dissertation describing the role of several telomere binding proteins in regulating telomere stability. While I haven't looked at a copy of Scientific American in many years I am thankful to pop science for making biology accessible to me as a youngster.
