SUMMARY:Cómete el Museo: Darwin y la evolución de la tapa
DESCRIPTION:Si corre\, nada o vuela\, a la cazuela. Esta podría haber sido la máxima de Charles Darwin\, posiblemente el científico más importante de la historia de la humanidad\, que recorrió todo el mundo descubriendo su exótica fauna… y comiéndosela. Seguiremos los pasos de Charles\, que degustó animales como ñandú\, puma\, búho o armadillo.

SUMMARY:The Volcanoes of the Galapagos and the Evolution of Life
DESCRIPTION:Virginia Tech Museum of Geosciences Public Lecture presented by Dr. Esteban Gazel.\nDr. Gazel studies volcanic activity and associated magma plumes. This talk will focus on how volcanoes from the Galapagos plume closed the isthmus in Central America\, made a new continental mass\, triggered glaciations\, and affected the evolution of life (even human evolution) on the whole planet! \nPlease join the Museum of Geosciences for this public event in recognition of International Darwin Day. Lecture in 4069 Derring Hall\, followed by a hands-on\, meet-the-scientists session in the Museum 2062 Derring. This event will be of value to K-12 teachers and other educators\, as well as our many community members interested in geology.

SUMMARY:L'evoluzione è ovunque: vedere il mondo con gli occhi di Darwin
DESCRIPTION:Anche quest’anno Café Scientifique Bologna celebra il #DarwinDay! Nel caffé scientifico dell’11 febbraio avremo con noi Marco Ferrari\, biologo e giornalista\, autore del libro l’Evoluzione è ovunque (Codice\, 2015) \nLa teoria darwiniana dell’evoluzione – una delle intuizioni più rivoluzionarie nella storia dell’uomo – anche se per molti rimane chiusa nei laboratori e negli articoli scientifici\, difficile ed esoterica\, è presente in tutto il pianeta\, addirittura nell’intero universo. Con essa possiamo interpretare quello che vediamo attorno a noi e usarla come strumento: per salvare vite e disegnare automobili\, progettare antenne\, programmare i tragitti dei pullman e leggere i grandi romanzi della letteratura. Si trova nei computer\, nei robot\, nelle sale operatorie\, alla NASA e nei parchi nazionali. Da brillante chiave di lettura che spiega la natura del vivente\, la teoria dell’evoluzione sta diventando un efficacissimo mezzo per cambiare il mondo. In meglio. \nMarco Ferrari\, biologo e giornalista\, è redattore presso riviste di natura e scienza (Oasis\, Terra\, Focus Junior\, Geo). E’ stato ricercatore di Psicofarmacologia\, per poi passare al giornalismo e alla divulgazione scientifica. Ha scritto articoli scientifici per quotidiani\, settimanali e mensili\, curato enciclopedie scientifiche e documentari\, tradotto una decina di libri scientifici e ne ha scritti altrettanti. Attualmente è caposervizio Scienza presso Focus. \nWWF Corner: Animals/Humans together possible \nPer ogni aperitivo (5 euro) acquistato a La Gazzetta 1 euro sarà donato all’Oasi di Montovolo gestita dal WWF Bologna. Grazie alla collaborazione con la Libreria Ubik Irnerio (via Irnerio\, 27)\, ogni partecipazione dà inoltre diritto a uno sconto del 10% per l’acquisto di libri di divulgazione scientifica. \nVisto il numero limitato di posti\, è consigliata la prenotazione via mail all’indirizzo cafescientifiquebologna@gmail.com o via SMS al numero 3355381978.

SUMMARY:1º DARWIN DAY BELÉM
DESCRIPTION:No dia 12 de fevereiro a comunidade científica comemora o nascimento de Charles Darwin! E para comemorar esse dia\, nada melhor do que nos juntarmos para discutir ciência! Por isso\, nós do Lagen Ufpa organizamos o primeiro Darwin Day do Icb Ufpa ! Esperamos contar com a presença de todos. Aguardem atualizações sobre a programação. Enquanto isso\, deixo vocês com uma citação da origem das espécies\, um dos trechos mais conhecidos e belos e que demonstram um pouco do deslumbramento de Darwin pela sua descoberta:\n“Há uma grandiosidade nesta perspectiva da vida com os seus vários poderes\, que foi originalmente dada a poucas formas de vida ou a uma só\, e que – enquanto este planeta anda à volta de acordo com a lei fixa da gravidade – a partir de um princípio tão simples\, infinitas formas de grande beleza e muito maravilhosas evoluíram e estão a evoluir. “

SUMMARY:Lets play to be scientists. 2th Darwin Day in the Center of Cuba.
DESCRIPTION:Last February 11th\, Biology students\, teachers and researchers\, alongside children and teachers of a rural primary school celebrated the International Darwin Day using pleasure\, adventures and role-plays. They visited a patch of endemic flora recently discovered near the children’s school. During the visit\, the Biology students and teachers were talking about threatness and social importance of this area. Later all were be grouped in small teams devoted to play and to create plots to identify\, mark and count some of the most important species found. Thus\, including children in the data collection process\, the first population description of this patch was made. The purpose is to excite in our university and primary students scientific awareness through good feelings and experiences associated with this natural collection. These scholar and recreation actions tend to establish bases to a future conservation project combining research goals with a pleasant environmental education.

SUMMARY:Aliens and cavemen - let's talk
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered whether it’s possible to communicate having to shape a completely new language? Students taking part in an iterated learning experiment showing the linguistic code evolution will have a chance to see the creation of a bridge between aliens and cavemen just in 2 hours! The event is organised under the auspices of the Center for Language Evolution Studies and the Polish Society for Human and Evolution Studies\, and coordinated by Katarzyna Rogalska\, a PhD student in linguistics at the Department of English\, Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń.

SUMMARY:Countering Darwin’s Crtitics: Correcting Creationist Complaints with Aron Ra

Aron Ra is the Texas state director of American Atheists\, host of the Ra-Men Podcast\, a public speaker\, science educator\, video producer\, blogger\, and vlogger. \n“Darwin’s critics have historically been almost exclusively creationist\, and their critiques have either not been based on science\, or were based on a misunderstanding of science\, resulting in a condemnation of character when all else failed.” – Aron Ra \nThis event is sponsored by the Secular Student Alliance an is open to the public.

SUMMARY:The Darwin Day Lecture 2016 | How Darwinian is cultural evolution? | Thom Scott-Phillips
DESCRIPTION:The suggestion that culture changes in broadly Darwinian ways goes back to Darwin himself\, who suggested that his explanation of species change might also apply to language change. However the idea of studying culture in Darwinian terms fell out of favour for most of the 20th-century\, after some early anthropologists misused Darwin’s ideas\, for instance to defend distinctions between supposedly ‘primitive’ and ‘advanced’ cultures. The idea of cultural Darwinism was revived in the 1970s and 1980s in various forms\, the most well-known of which is Richard Dawkins’ idea of the meme. But how Darwinian is culture really? In this talk\, Dr Thom Scott-Phillips will discuss the history of the idea of cultural evolution\, and the prospects for a Darwinian science of culture. \nAbout Thom Scott-Phillips \nDr Thom Scott-Phillips is Senior Research Fellow in Cognitive and Evolutionary Anthropology\, at Durham University. His research focuses on evolutionary and cognitive approaches to the human mind and culture\, and in particular to communication and language. He employs a variety of research methods: controlled cognitive science experiments\, mathematical and computational models\, and theoretical\, cross-disciplinary synthesis. His first book\, Speaking Our Minds\, was published in November 2014. His major prizes and awards include an ESRC Future Research Leaders grant\, early-career fellowships from the ESRC\, the Leverhulme Trust\, and Durham University’s Addison Wheeler bequest\, the New Investigator Award from the European Human Behaviour and Evolution Association (2011)\, and the British Psychological Society’s prize for Outstanding Doctoral Research (2010). \nAbout Richard Dawkins \nProfessor Richard Dawkins is a renowned British ethologist\, evolutionary biologist\, and author. He is an emeritus fellow of New College\, Oxford\, and was the University of Oxford’s Professor for Public Understanding of Science from 1995 until 2008. His popular science books include The Selfish Gene (1976)\, The Extended Phenotype (1982)\, The Blind Watchmaker (1986)\, and The God Delusion (2006)\, and he is aso a Vice President of the British Humanist Association.
