Witkowksi, J. A. (1987) Cell aging in vitro: A historical perspective. Experimental Gerontology, 22 (4). pp. 231-248. ISSN 0531-5565
Abstract
This article describes the historical background to the demonstration by Hayflick and Moorhead that human diploid cell strains in culture have limited life-spans. I suggest that the recognition of cell aging in vitro is an example from the biological sciences of a Kuhnian scientific revolution.
