Theories of Ageing </p> <ul><li> The scientific study of ageing has been an odd mixture of the accumulation of mountains of dismal evidence that shows that almost anything you can think of goes wrong with age, and proposals of simplistic theories that try to explain ageing in terms of single processes, ranging from defective testicles to shortened telomeres. </li></ul> <p>Ee Brian Charlesworth, an evolutionary biologist 26.
