Darwin Day Celebration

DNA IS AT THE HEART OF EVOLUTION

AN INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION OF SCIENCE AND HUMANITY

2006

After February 12, 2006 the effort to include additional languages on this website continued and in addition, we sought individuals or organizations in each of the countries where events have been held to become affiliates of Darwinday.org, within their countries. They were encouraged to be ready to translate more of our website information into their language, as soon as we had reorganized the Web site structure to allow translators to work efficiently and without interfering with each other. We also invited them to add appropriate information of their own, including the recrutment of prominent Scientists, Educators, Philosophers, and Writers from within those jurisdictions. We expect to be able to assist them in taking responsibility for the expansion of the Celebration by providing them with email lists and other materials. If you, or a group you are aware of, would be interested in working with us please contact us.

If you are planning a Celebration for 2008 please register it here.

Title: British Columbia Humanist Association Darwin Day Celegration (Public)

Start Date and Time:

Activities:
Celebrate Darwin Day with Dr. Sally Otto, UBC Professor of Biology and expert in the evolution of sex and mating systems. Dr. Otto’s main area of expertise is theoretical models of evolution that study how populations change over time. The aim of this work is to identify when and whether particular evolutionary transitions are possible. Evolution plays such a central role in our contemporary understanding of life on this planet that it is only fitting to mark the birthday of the author of The Origin of Species.

Title: University of Victoria (Canada) Darwin Day Celebration (Public)

Start Date and Time:

Activities:
The Philosophy Students' Union (PSU) of the University of Victoria is sponsoring this somewhat whimsical celebration of Darwin Day on the UVic Campus. On the lighter side, we will be singing Darwin carols of our own composition, exchanging Darwin cards, displaying an evolution tree (a wooden frame on which we will hang, as ornaments, representative sections of plants according to their evolutionary branches), and feature as well a sombre (but somehow convivial) Charles Darwin to spread wisdom, scientific information, and (perhaps) good cheer for the season.

On the more serious side, we will also have a table in the Student Union Building at which we will discuss some details of Darwin's life and work and explain to critics why evolutionary theory is by far the most rational stance to take regarding the origins of life.

A Darwin-themed party will follow. On Darwin Day itself (Sunday, February 12th), we are planning a similar celebration in downtown Victoria, for the general public.

If you would like the lyrics to our Darwin Carols, please contact us at the email address below.

Speaker -Dr. REES KASSEN (Biology, U of O)
Title of talk - 'DINNER WITH THE DARWINS'
Dr Kassen is known internationally for his integrative approach to the study of biodiversity and has helped to pioneer the use of microbial systems as experimental models for understanding the evolutionary and ecological mechanisms underlying patterns of biodiversity in nature. Dr Kassen’s recent work focuses on the properties of new mutations affecting fitness and suggests that it may be possible to predict the “next evolutionary move” of a population when faced with a novel environmental stress.

Le jour de Darwin

Pour une première année, le Centre de Conservation de la Biodiversité Boréale / Zoo sauvage de St-Félicien, vous invite à venir célébrer l’anniversaire de Charles Darwin, samedi le 11 février 2006. Ainsi, le CCBB se joint à des dizaines d’organisations à travers le monde pour souligner l’anniversaire de Darwin et de ses travaux scientifiques.

Que vous soyez professeur, étudiant ou tout simplement amant de la nature, la journée s’adresse à vous. Vous serez d’abord invité à visiter le magnifique site du Zoo sauvage pour ensuite être convié à assister et participer aux conférences. Sur le site, vous observerez des animaux de la Boréalie et pourrez, entre autres, constater l’efficacité de leurs adaptations au climat nordique, résultat de milliers d’années d’évolution. Votre journée se conclura par deux conférences par des passionnés de l’Évolution ! Tout d’abord une présentation de Darwin par Robert Loiselle de l’UQAC, suivi d’un échange entre Cyrille Barrette, professeur à l’université Laval et auteur d’un livre sur la Sélection Naturelle, et du public. Préparez vos questions !

Le jour de Darwin au CCBB, un événement qui saura vous captiver !

Il est aussi membre du comité scientifique du CCBB. M. Barrette s’entretiendra avec le public de sujets variés : l'origine de la vie, l'origine de l'homme, la nature animale versus la nature humaine, la vie extra-terrestre, le créationnisme (intelligent design), etc. Les visiteurs sont invités à préparer leurs questions pour M. Barrette.

The public is invited to the first “Darwin Day celebration” at the Centre for the conservation of the boreal biodiversity/ Wild zoo of St-Felicien. The celebration will be held Saturday 11th, 2006. Visitors will have the chance to visit the zoo before assisting to two conferences by university professors.

Boosted by the extraordinary success of the events held in previous years Darwin Day in Milan returns with an even richer program than ever before. Once again the principal figures of the Italian and international evolutionist debate will confront each other and the general public. Due to the interest shown by the press and the support from the international scientific community Darwin Day 2006 represents an important step towards the global celebrations for Darwin’s Bicentenary in 2009. It has become an annual event dedicated to evolutionism along the same lines as similar events which have been taking place in other countries for some time now. Inspired by the English tradition, from this year onwards the event will become a real kermis with not only conference sessions but also thematic evenings, shows and laboratory demonstrations for both children and adults. The popular style used aimed at a curious public with different levels of understanding and not necessarily experts in the field will be calibrated especially for high school and university students. It is hoped to cultivate an interest on their part in scientific culture and to make them aware that there are those in our country who once again would like to restrict the teaching of the Theory of Evolution and natural history. The attacks on evolutionist and naturalistic knowledge have, however, multiplied within this period of history and they already represent an aggressive ideological anti-scientific movement. Convinced that only the passionate and rigorous communication of science can defeat these distortions it was decided that the 2006 edition of Darwin Day would be dedicated to the theme of “Evolution at work” in order to demonstrate, by an immersion in the real live world of scientific research in progress, the diversity, richness and beauty of the discoveries which are accumulating in numerous disciplines in light of the theory of evolution. The evolutionary processes will be seen at work in naturalistic, paleontological, geological, biological, molecular and ethological studies but also in the cognitive sciences. The prestigious scientists who will convene in Milan from all over the world will take into consideration, with the help as always of historians and philosophers of science, the most fascinating themes of evolutionism: the origins of the Earth and life on our planet, the empirical evidence of the Darwinian evolutionary mechanisms, the emergence of the human mind in nature, the evolution of perception in sensory worlds incommensurable to us. Two evening events of particular importance will be dedicated firstly, to the memory of one of the fathers of contemporary evolutionism, Ernst Mayr, on the occasion of the first anniversary of his death and secondly, to the presentation of the much awaited Italian edition of the important manual on evolution by Mark Ridley.

Those who cannot attend Darwin’s birthday at the Civic Museum of Natural History of Milan, or the other meetings being held in various locations throughout Lombardy can follow the proceedings live on the website Pikaia (www.eversincedarwin.org), the Italian telematic portal dedicated to evolutionism. Therefore, in anticipation of the eagerly awaited turning point after two-centuries,

Sunday 12th February 2006
Location: Museum of Natural History

Presented by the Museum Didactic Association

Open Day for the general public with various educative games and activities for both adults and children.

Time 10:00 and 15:00: TRAVELLING WITH DARWIN

Simply by going through the museum it will be possible to retrace the main stops on the adventurous travel undertaken by Darwin and to encounter the animals and plants which would contribute to sparking his brillant intuition which would lead the scientist to elaborate his famous theory.
A short role-play at the end of the tour will allow the participants to place themselves in the shoes of the great naturalist.

Time 16:00: UNDERSTANDING EVOLUTION

The concepts on which the famous Darwinian theory are based are not always easy to understand: some simple guided experiments wil lead the participants to discover the laws which regulate evolution, as before their very eyes natural situations with the appearance of new species will be simulated.
The activity is aimed at an adult audience.

Ore 16: EVOLUTION GAMES

A game for children: each participant impersonates an hypothetical gene, which will be expressed as a particular hereditary character.
The players will each wear a sign indicating a character on the front (eg. “GENE 1 - EAR LENGTH ”) and on the back a particular phenotype (eg. “SHORT EARS ”). The players will then divide into groups which will include one gene at a time. All the components, by reading each others signs, will complete the silhouette of an animal with the characters combined in a random way thus creating a unique individual.
The activity is aimed at 6 to 12 year-olds.

Virus emergenti: capire l'evoluzione per combattere
la prossima pandemia.
Organizzazione: Darwin - Bimestrale di Scienza e Fondazione Sigma-Tau
Chairman: Edoardo Boncinelli

Prenotazioni al numero: 06 3217387

Da mesi autorità sanitarie nazionali e internazionali sono alle prese con l'emergenza di H5N1, un virus dell'influenza aviaria che ha fatto più di 70 morti in Estremo Oriente e che si candida a innescare la prossima pandemia. Qual è la probabilità che questo virus riesca ad adattarsi all'uomo? La scoperta che il virus della Spagnola del 1918, responsabile di almeno 40 milioni di morti, era un virus aviario che ha fatto il salto di specie direttamente nell'uomo deve accentuare l'allarme, oppure vi sono ragioni per essere cautamente ottimisti? E qual è la situazione ecologica dei virus dell'influenza? Un modo concreto di celebrare l'anniversario della nascita di Charles Darwin è mostrare la straordinaria attualità delle sue idee sui meccanismi del cambiamento evolutivo proprio rispetto a una tematica come l’evoluzione dei virus influenzali che intercetta problemi scientifici, rischi sanitari e prospettive della medicina.

Il pubblico sarà accolto per dare inizio al viaggio in cui si diventa protagonisti e complici dei personaggi che hanno vissuto accanto allo scienziato naturalista Darwin: la balia, testimone dell'infanzia e dell'adolescenza, Emma, cugina e compagna di giochi, poi moglie devota e custode delle sue sconvolgenti scoperte che cambiarono la rotta della ricerca scientifica, al pari delle rivelazioni con cui Galileo turbò il pensiero dominante del '600. Sgranocchiando i biscotti al burro della balia, si seguiranno le storie di Charles: prima bambino e poi giovane avventuriero in giro per il mondo.
Si racconterà del suo trionfale ritorno con le rivoluzionarie intuizioni che aprirono al mondo le nuove frontiere sulla teoria dell'evoluzione.
Momenti d'interazione con il pubblico renderanno il percorso dinamico e avvincente.

Start Date and Time:

Activities:
or our third Darwin Day, we have assembled an impressive line up of talks, starting with a keynote address from Nick Matzke, from the US National Centre for Science Education. Nick prepared the "case for evolution" in the recent widely publicised trial in Dover, Pennsylvania, in which Judge John E. Jones III ruled that the teaching of Intelligent Design was unconstitutional (read the ruling here). This year's Darwin Day thus provides us Brits to hear first hand news from the front line in the battle to defend evolution--and science in general--against its critics.

Other themes covered in this year's meeting include the origin of Darwin's finches, discussion of political and public perceptions of science, a re-appraisal of the Wilberforce-Huxley debate, the evolution of art, of manuscripts, of the human face and gait, of plants and of the hepatitis C virus, Finally, the meeting will close with more musical and video celebrations from the Genomic Dub Collective, including the release of a new reggae track "Dub fi Dover" to celebrate the recent victory for science in Dover, Pennsylvania.

Title: Dinner With Darwin in San Francisco (Private)

Start Date and Time:

Activities:
We have no set agenda, except to enjoy a meal and a wide ranging discussion of evolution topics (see below). Last year we had a dinner with evolutionist friends. Everyone contributed something original related to Darwin and evolution--a sort of show-and-tell. Original poems, short essays, discussions of books, selections from the Darwin Awards, original artwork, anecdotes, discussions of how to advance evolutionary thinking, etc.

This year we assembled some possible topics for discussion:

Regarding “The United States District Court For The Middle District Of Pennsylvania: Tammy Kitzmiller, et al. (Plaintiffs) vs. Dover Area School District, et al., (Defendants)”: Did presiding Judge E. Jones III, in his judgment on December 20, 2006, enter and order permanently enjoining the defendants from requiring teachers to denigrate or disparage the scientific theory of evolution? If so, why?

What characterizes conscious experiencing of objects or events of reality, and how did the human ability to so experience things consciously arise?

“If you were to randomly pick an extant animal species, odds are that it would be a beetle. While there are 250,000 described species of plants, 12,000 described species of roundworms, and only 4,000 described species of mammals, there are over 350,000 beetle species described, with many more beetles yet to be discovered.” Why so many beetles?
