The Humanized Fly - Barbara J. Culliton
... Flies age and die, faster than human beings, to be sure, but their aging appears to be under the control of similar genes. (Drosophila’s prodigious reproduction, coupled with their short life span is what makes them ideal or "model organisms" for laboratory research.) Flies have genes for apoptos ...
