El Punt Avui, La Vanguardia, Antena 3, EFE and El Diario Vasco, among other media, have published articles about the recent research led by IRB Barcelona and CNAG-CRG, which highlights that skin ages because its cells “forget” their function and stop secreting collagens and other proteins. The study has been published in the journal Cell and could have therapeutic applications aiming to help aged skin to form scar tissue faster and more efficiently after damage or after an operation.

Quo magazine has published a report on the aesthetic treatments that people use to stay young. They mention, for example, Botox, red light masks, breast prostheses, among others. In the article, they include the statements of experts in the field of health and research and also mention the study performed by IRB Barcelona and CNAG-CRG on the aging of the skin caused by the loss of identity and function of the main cells of the dermis.
La Razón and Info Diabético have each published an article about the work done by Manuel Serrano at IRB Barcelona: "If we eliminate damaged cells, the function of aged tissues is greatly improved, that is, they are rejuvenated," says Serrano, who goes on to point out that "it has been possible to delay and reverse the aging of small mammals, such as mice, with the use of experimental drugs that eliminate damaged cells."
