 ABSTRACT = {New models for evolutionary processes of mutation accumulation
             allow hypotheses about the age-specificity of mutational effects to
             be translated into predictions of heterogeneous population hazard
             functions. We apply these models to questions in the biodemography
             of longevity, including proposed explanations of Gompertz hazards
             and mortality plateaus, and use them to explore the possibility of
             melding evolutionary and functional models of aging.},
