Join us at the University of Delaware’s Darwin Day event on February 12, 2026 to celebrate Darwin’s explorations in the diversity of life and life sciences. Darwin Day is an international event honoring the naturalist’s birthday, and we will be exploring the lasting impact of his work through an interdisciplinary lens.
Our College of Arts & Sciences Dean Caleb Everett will give the keynote address, including information from his research. UD Faculty, with expertise directly related to Darwin’s research, will participate in a panel discussion. Audience questions are encouraged formally during the program and informally after the program concludes.
This event is at 4 p.m. on February 12, 2026 in the Roselle Center for the Arts, Gore Recital Hall (Orchard Road, University of Delaware, Newark, DE 19711, USA).
