Geroscience is a new agenda in medical research that explores the possibility of intervention on generic mechanisms of aging to postpone the onset of age-related diseases. One danger for this agenda is to get lost in the complexity of the interactions between mechanisms of aging. Only a relevant theoretical framework can help. Three important approaches to the biology of aging have been: 1) the evolutionary theory of aging (ETA), which established general mechanisms to explain the absence of elimination of aging, like antagonistic pleiotropy and the disposable soma theory; 2) biodemography, which studies patterns of senescence and non-senescence in different species; 3 the molecular biology of aging (MBA), which investigates the so-called "hallmarks of aging" one by one or their interactions two by two. I propose a new, hybrid approach based on the investigation of the order of apparition, during evolution, of the different mechanisms of aging that are conserved in humans, as a basis to a multilayer evolutionary view of aging (MEVA). I sketch the preliminary results and draw the consequences on received views on aging and on geroscience in particular.

This paper aims to locate organisations (one type of group agent) as material objects in the natural world. It does this by analysing the organisation-member relation in such a way that the members are the material parts of organisations, following Kathrin Koslicki's analysis of the parts of ordinary objects. This gives us two surprising results. First, an organisation is wherever its members are (even, I suggest, when the members are not playing their organisational role). Second, two organisations can each be parts of one another (seemingly challenging the idea that parthood is antisymmetric).----------------michael.nielsen at sydney.edu.au is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
