Essentially, due to the second law, all species progress through changes, and they age as their ability to resist entropy declines.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Link: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leafscience.org\/aging-happens-by-default\/\">https:\/\/www.leafscience.org\/aging-happens-by-default\/<\/a> --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, we have a talk by Dr. Alvaro Macieira-Coelho, who discusses how aging is a consequence of thermodynamics and entropy.
