SUMMARY:University of Delaware Darwin Day February 15-16\, 2023
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday February 15\, 2023 Morris Library 4:30 PM\nPop Goes the Beagle: Darwin for Children\nMargaret Stetz\nMae & Robert Carter Professor Women and Gender Studies; and\, Professor of Humanities University of Delaware\nScience is increasingly being politicized and scientists themselves demonized. Meanwhile\, what children learn in classrooms and in libraries is also under hostile scrutiny. This talk will bring together the subjects of Darwin and education. Through a survey of recent British and American books for young readers\, many of them illustrated\, we will consider what authors are teaching children about Darwin’s life\, voyages\, discoveries\, theories and\, more generally\, about the role of science in the past and present. \nWednesday February 15\, 2023 Morris Library 4:30 PM\nPop Goes the Beagle: Darwin for Children\nMargaret Stetz\nMae & Robert Carter Professor Women and Gender Studies; and\, Professor of Humanities University of Delaware\nScience is increasingly being politicized and scientists themselves demonized.

SUMMARY:Darwin Day 2023: Collezioni\, Tassonomia\, Evoluzione
DESCRIPTION:Dalla morfologia alla genomica: il ruolo delle collezioni museali nello studio dell’evoluzione ieri\, oggi e domani.\nIl Museo di Storia Naturale di Ferrara e il Dipartimento di Scienze della Vita e Biotecnologie dell’Università di Ferrara\, in collaborazione con l’Associazione Didattica Didò e con il patrocinio dell’Associazione Nazionale Musei Scientifici (ANMS) e della Società Italiana di Biologia Evoluzionistica (SIBE)\, presentano\nla sedicesima edizione del Darwin Day Ferrara. Il tema conduttore di quest’anno è centrato sull’importanza delle collezioni di piante e animali per lo studio dell’evoluzione delle specie. I campioni museali forniscono informazioni sul presente e sul passato\, e permettono di ricostruire i cambiamenti\, gli adattamenti\, le estinzioni. Sono anche fondamentali per la tassonomia\, la scienza che definisce i criteri per l’identificazione e le classificazione delle specie\, contribuendo allo sviluppo di strategie di salvaguardia e conservazione degli animali e delle piante in pericolo di estinzione. Dalle collezioni si estraggono dati morfologici ma anche genetici\, a partire dal DNA barcode fino ad arrivare ad una nuova disciplina che studia i genomi estratti dai reperti museali\, la museomica. Ma ogni studio tassonomico ed evolutivo richiede sempre approfondimenti sistematici basati anche sulle caratteristiche morfologiche dei reperti.

SUMMARY:2023 Darwin Day Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Herman Pontzer\, Ph.D.\, Professor of Evolutionary Anthropology\, Duke University and alumni of Penn State University Department of Anthropology\n \nHerman Pontzer\, Ph.D.\, Professor of Evolutionary Anthropology and Research Associate Professor of Global Health at Duke University\, investigates how our deep\, evolutionary past shapes our lives today. His team conducted the first measurements of daily energy expenditure in traditional hunter-gatherers and in non-human apes\, with discoveries that have changed the way we think about diet\, exercise\, metabolism\, and health. Dr. Pontzer’s book\, Burn\, was published in March 2021. \nWednesday\, February 22 from 4:30-6:00 p.m. \nFreeman Auditorium\, HUB-Robeson Center\, University Park PA \nA reception and book signing will follow the lecture in the auditorium lounge. \nRSVP required for the reception.
