SUMMARY:Celebration of Darwin Day in the Galapagos Islands
DESCRIPTION:Metropolitan Touring Ecuador celebrates Darwin Day in the Galapagos Islands on board her fleet of expedition vessels MV Santa Cruz II\, Yacht La Pinta\, and Yacht Isabela II. Throughout the weekend a series of lectures and land visits to areas Charles Darwin explored in the Galapagos will be arranged by our team of Expedition Leaders. Guests from all over the world will get a chance to have a deeper understanding in how Galapagos influenced Charles Darwin’s thinking\, but also to reflect in why Charles Darwin is one of the most positive drivers of modern thinking in humanity.

SUMMARY:Evolution Explored
DESCRIPTION:A new outdoor exhibition of 40 images by Magnum photographers will explore Charles Darwin’s legacy in modern society. Inspired by Darwin’s links to Shrewsbury\, the exhibition reflects on man’s progression through technology\, changes in society\, environmental concerns\, scientific discoveries\, and the historical events which have shaped the world we live in today. \nTraversing the globe from Australia to Brooklyn via Malaysia\, the exhibition includes a diverse selection of photographs from the seed vault in Svalbard by Jonas Bendiksen\, Longleat Safari Park by Martin Parr\, to the Horniman Museum and the protests in Tiananmen Square by Stuart Franklin. Other photographers included in the exhibition are Trent Parke\, Philip Jones Griffiths\, Elliott Erwitt\, Peter Marlow\, Alex Webb\, Rene Burri\, and Robert Capa – examining man’s place in the ever changing world. \nCharles Darwin was born in Shrewsbury in 1809 and published his landmark On the Origin of the Species in 1859. His theory of evolution by natural selection led to a rethinking of human’s place in the world – the idea that humans shared ancestry with apes was a challenge to the foundations of western civilisation. Evolution Explored will coincide with International Darwin Day\, and Darwin’s birthday on 12 February.  \nThe exhibition is a collaboration between Shrewsbury Business Improvement District (BID)\, The Hive Arts Centre\, GRAIN Photography Hub and partners.  In association with the exhibition\, there will be a series of activities including a Photo Safari and a Magnum Photos Talk. For further information visit www.hiveonline.org.uk  and www.grainphotographyhub.co.cuk  \nThe ten-week exhibition also links to Magnum Photos’ 70th anniversary which is to be marked by a series of international events\, projects and partnerships.  \n“We are delighted to be collaborating on this outdoor exhibition\, looking at Magnum’s archive through the prism of evolution. As Magnum moves into its 70th year\, it is a timely concept as we reflect on our own history and evolution. The exhibition will display powerful historic and contemporary photographs exploring Darwin’s legacy in modern society\,” said Emily Graham\, Cultural Commissions & Partnerships at Magnum Photos.     \nTrish Donovan\, Shrewsbury BID Board Member\, said: “Charles Darwin was born and raised in Shrewsbury. The town is rightly proud of this special connection to the man who became one of the most important figures in history with his theory of evolution by natural selection. It’s a unique event for the town to experience such renowned work and we expect it to attract thousands of visitors.”  \nSalla Virman\, Director for the Hive\, added: “This is an exciting and inspirational arts project looking at evolution through the eyes of some of the most influential photographers around. ‘Evolution Explored’ will celebrate the link between Charles Darwin and Shrewsbury but also give everyone the opportunity to enjoy high quality art in an accessible way. We would like to thank Arts Council England for their support to make the project possible and sponsors Redrow Homes\, Shrewsbury Shopping and Shrewsbury Colleges Group.”

Explore the evolution of species in volcanically active regions across time and around the world. \nLearn more about the Darwin Conversations series on our website natural-history.uoregon.edu

SUMMARY:The Darwin Day Lecture 2017\, with Lawrence Krauss | Cosmic natural selection
DESCRIPTION:Each February\, people around the world come together for Darwin Day\, a celebration of the life of Charles Darwin and his enormously influential discovery of evolution by natural selection. The BHA has organised a Darwin Day Lecture in London each year since 2003\, and it is the largest event of its kind in Britain\, with more than 1\,000 people registering to attend the sold-out lecture in each year. \nDoors open at 19:00 for a 19:30 start. Tickets cost £15\, £13 for BHA members\, and only £10 for students. \nPlease note that tickets must be booked online in advance of the event\, and that sales end at 18:00 on 9 February\, unless tickets have sold out before then. \nAbout Lawrence Krauss\nLawrence M. Krauss is an internationally-renowned theoretical physicist with wide research interests\, which include the early universe\, the nature of dark matter\, general relativity\, and neutrino astrophysics. He has investigated questions ranging from the nature of exploding stars to issues of the origin of all mass in the universe.  He is currently Foundation Professor in the School of Earth and Space Exploration and Physics Department at Arizona State University\, and Inaugural Director of the Origins Project\, a national centre for research and outreach on origins issues\, from the origins of the universe\, to human origins\, to the origins of consciousness and culture. He received his Ph.D. in Physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1982\, and is the only physicist to have received awards from all three national US physics societies. \nKrauss is the author of over 300 scientific publications\, as well as numerous popular articles on physics and astronomy. He is the author of ten popular books\, including the international bestseller The Physics of Star Trek (1995) and most recently A Universe from Nothing (2012)\, which immediately became a New York Times Bestseller and has now been translated into 24 different languages. It argues that not only can our universe naturally arise from nothing\, without supernatural effects\, but that it probably did. His newest book\, The Greatest Story Ever Told… So Far\, will appear in March 2017.

SUMMARY:Darwin Day Lecture at Stony Brook University
DESCRIPTION:Darwin Day Lecture\nFriday\, February 10\, 2017\, 7:30 P.M.\nStony Brook University\, Stony Brook NY USA 11794\ncontact jeffrey.levinton@stonybrook.edu\nEarth and Space Sciences 001 \n“What Darwin Didn’t Know” \nDr. Hopi Hoekstra \nAlexander Agassiz Professor of Biology\nHarvard University \nSUMMARY\nWhen Darwin articulated his grand theory of evolution by natural selection in 1859\, he was still missing one crucial piece: while he recognized that offspring resembled their parents\, he didn’t know how this information was transmitted from one generation to the next.  In the last 150 years\, not only has DNA been discovered as the carrier of genetic information\, but we are increasingly able to link specific genes to the traits that they encode.  Now\, we can study how traits evolve – as Darwin did – but also find evidence for evolution at a once unimaginable level: in DNA\, genes and genomes. In this presentation\, I will tell you about our work studying evolution in action – by combining experiments in both the lab and the field – linking genes to traits and ultimately to survival. \nBIOGRAPHY\nHoekstra is an evolutionary geneticist who studies the molecular basis of adaptation in wild mice. Since 2006 she has been an Alexander Agassiz Professor of Zoology at Harvard University. She became a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator in 2013\, and in 2016\, she was elected into the National Academy of Sciences.  In 1994\, Hoekstra received her B.A. with Highest Honors at the University of California Berkeley and got her PhD in Zoology at the University of Washington in 2000. She was a NIH NRSA Fellow at the University of Arizona\, and then an assistant professor at UC San Diego before joining the faculty at Harvard. She is an internationally renowned biologist who has made major strides in developing an approach that connects evolution in the wild to mechanisms at the molecular level. \nDarwin Day is supported by the Department of Ecology and Evolution\, the Provost of Stony Brook University\, and the Living World Lecture Series of Science Open Nights.
