(Joana Owens & Sarah Parker moderators)\nLunch not provided – Brown bag \nThursday Feb. 12th Darwin’s Birthday!!!!!!\n12:30 – 1:30 Reid Auditorium SELS Speaker – Rebecca Kimball UF\, “Avian Evolution in the Era of Big Data” 	http://people.biology.ufl.edu/rkimball/Home.html\nTalk Abstract: Birds are among the most well-studied organisms. However\, understanding the evolution of different clades of birds has been problematic. While some authors have suggested that phylogenetic relationships among orders might not be resolved\, recent large-scale and whole genome studies have shown an ability to resolve these relationships. With the backbone of the avian tree of life elucidated\, an effort to build the entire avian tree of life using molecular sequence data is underway. Such studies are showing that previously accepted relationships within genera and families are often incorrect\, but new data is allowing these problems to be resolved. This will allow us to begin rigorously exploring the factors leading to the diversity of birds we see today.\nPizza Lunch provided\nCake for Darwin’s Birthday \n5:00 -7:00 Riverhouse Paper discussion: “Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution”\nStudents\, Faculty and staff are invited to read this classic paper and come to a discussion session.\n**All those that participate will be entered in a Raffle for a Darwin Prize!!!!!!**\nThe article and questions for journal discussion will be emailed to students. \nFriday Feb.13th\n12:00 – 1:00 Reid Auditorium: Evolution Music & Talent Show\nKim Beasley and students will perform Darwin/Evolution inspired music\, followed by an evolution talent show open to all JU students/faculty/staff.  Judged by the audience and prizes!!! (Darwin bobblehead 1st prize\, Darwin fish 2nd prize).  Students who want to enter the talent show should contact Dr. Vanderhoff.\nLunch not provided – Brown Bag \nFor more information on any of the events please contact Dr. Vanderhoff nvander4@ju.edu

SUMMARY:Dia Internacional de Darwin 2015: Celebrando a teoria da evolução e seu papel no mundo moderno
DESCRIPTION:Este evento tem como propósito celebrar o dia internacional de Darwin\, proposto como data relevante desde o bicentenário do naturalista Charles Darwin\, proponente da teoria da evolução por seleção natural e um dos pensadores mais influentes da história. A data procura inspirar pessoas por todo o mundo a refletir e agir segundo princípios da razão científica e curiosidade intelectual\, tão importantes na nossa vida acadêmica.\nContaremos com as contribuições dos Professores Leandro R. Monteiro (CBB – LCA) “Teoria da evolução e o espectro de Darwin na biologia.”\, Prof. Carlos Eduardo B. de Sousa (CCH – LCL) “As Implicações do Darwinismo nas Humanidades e Prof. Carlos R. Ruiz Miranda (CBB – LCA) “Darwin e os estudo do comportamento em animais e humanos”.

SUMMARY:Wallace and Darwin: Inspiration\, Legacy\, and the Origins of Evolutionary Theory A Conversation Between James T. Costa and Daniel Duzdevich
DESCRIPTION:Charles Darwin was far from the first to suggest that species change with time. And he was not the only one to propose natural selection as the mechanism of species change. Alfred Russel Wallace\, Darwin’s sometime rival\, friend\, and colleague\, had the same idea during a feverish fit while on an expedition to southeast Asia. The manuscript Wallace fatefully sent to Darwin describing his revolutionary thoughts spurred the elder naturalist to go public. Their papers were read at the Linnean Society of London on July 1\, 1858\, immediately after which Darwin hastened to complete the watershed work that would become On the Origin of Species. This conversation will explore Wallace’s life\, his remarkable scientific contributions\, and his fascinating personal and intellectual relationship with Darwin. \nJames T. Costa is Director of the Highlands Biological Station and Professor of Biology at Western Carolina University.  His fieldwork and scholarship range from social evolution and behavior to the history of evolutionary thinking.  He is the author of The Annotated Origin: A Facsimile of the First Edition of On the Origin of Species (Harvard\, 2009)\, On the Organic Law of Change: A Facsimile Edition and Annotated Transcription of Alfred Russel Wallace’s ‘Species Notebook’ of 1855–1859 (Harvard\, 2013)\, and most recently of Wallace\, Darwin\, and the Origin of Species (Harvard\, 2014). \nDaniel Duzdevich is a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Biological Sciences at Columbia University\, where he studies the interactions between DNA and proteins at the scale of individual molecules. He is the author of Darwin’s On the Origin of Species: A Modern Rendition (Indiana\, 2014).

SUMMARY:Darwin\, Anthropology and Human Ethology. Lecture of Prof. Dr. Wulf SCHIEFENHÖVEL @ Science Cafe Eureka!
DESCRIPTION:«Darwin’s third book “The Expression of Emotions in Man and Animals” (1872) is revolutionary in many ways. He uses a phylogenetic\, cross-species approach to elucidate the similarity between animals and humans. Only in recent years\, authors like William McGrew and Frans de Waal have\, in their work on non-human primates\, done the same. For a long time ethologists had shied way from what was thought to be unscientific anthropomorphism. Comparative ethology is thus one of the new approaches the wise man in his house south of London initiated. Darwin also conducted one of the world’s earliest\, perhaps the earliest\, international cross-\ncultural questionnaire studies by sending letters to Bristish colonial officers\, missionaries\, traders etc. asking them how the local people in the remote areas of the world where they were stationed expressed nonverbal “yes”\, “no” and some basic emotions. Also his collecting data concerning the facial expressions of children born blind opened a new experimental field of evolutionary anthropology. Human ethology\, as the evolutionary study of human perception\, emotion\, thought and behaviour is indebted to the great man in many ways\, especially for collecting behavioural data in real life situations. I will compare his findings with my own fieldwork in New Guinea.» – Wulf SCHIEFENHÖVEL
