SUMMARY:Darwin Day Living World Lecture February 10 Features Martha Muñoz
DESCRIPTION:The College of Arts and Sciences Department of Ecology and Evolution will present “Behavior is a motor and a brake for evolution\,” featuring evolutionary biologist Martha Muñoz\, as part of its Living World lecture series in celebration of Darwin Day. \nThe lecture\, which is free and open to the public\, will be held Friday\, February 10\, at 7:30 pm in the Earth and Space Sciences Building\, Lecture Theatre 001. Darwin Day celebrates the birthday of Charles Darwin and the implications of organic evolution in science and society. \nOne of the most striking patterns of evolution is its uneven tempo across the tree of life. Whereas some traits and lineages diversify rapidly\, others appear to remain inert over millions of years. But why is this so? Munoz will explore this question by focusing on one of evolution’s key architects: behavior. Using Caribbean Anolis lizards as a model system\, she will reveal the signatures of behavior at both micro- and macroevolutionary scales and illustrate the constraints on this phenomenon. Behavior can slow or hasten evolution; on occasion\, it does both simultaneously. \nMuñoz is an assistant professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Yale University and an assistant curator at the Yale Peabody Museum. Her research focuses on uncovering the mechanisms that guide the rate at which evolution unfolds — primarily working in the Caribbean\, her research centers on reptiles\, amphibians and fish. Prior to joining the faculty at Yale\, she was an assistant professor at Virginia Tech and did postdoctoral research fellowships at Duke University and the Australian National University.

SUMMARY:When Worms and Germs Compete\, Who Wins?
DESCRIPTION:Join us for cocktail hour\, dinner\, science quiz (with prizes!)\, and presentation by Professor Vanessa Ezenwa at the 15th Annual Southern Connecticut Darwin Day Dinner\nHumans and animals are rarely infected with a single disease-causing organism at any one time; simultaneous infections are the norm. Historically\, infectious diseases have been studied one at a time.\nSince most hosts are routinely infected by more than one type of parasite\, concurrent infection (or co-infection) has emerged as a key challenge for wild-life\, veterinary\, and human health. Interactions between parasites co-occurring within a single host have profound effects on infection outcomes ranging from disease severity and progression within individual hosts to patterns of disease spread across populations.\nDr. Ezenwa will discuss the study of concurrent infection and how this perspective is providing new insight into the spread and impact of infectious diseases. \nDr. Ezenwa received a B.A. in Biology from Rice University and a PhD in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from Princeton University. She held faculty positions at the University of Montana and University of Georgia before moving to Yale in 2021 where she is a Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. Her research focuses on the ecology and evolution of infectious diseases in wild animal populations\, with a specific focus on linking processes across scales—from cells to ecosystems. \nDate: Saturday\, February 11\, 2023\nTime: 6 pm Cocktail Hour\, 7 pm Full Course Dinner\nAt: The Inn at Longshore; 260 Campo Road; Westport\, CT 06880\nPrice: $69 per person ($75 after February 6).

SUMMARY:Darwin Day Talk: 'How Science Works: Darwin\, Wallace\, and Evolution' by Andrew Berry
DESCRIPTION:Greater Boston Humanists invites you to join us we celebrate Darwin Day together right on February 12 with a talk by Dr. Andrew Berry of Harvard. This live lecture event is co-sponsored by GBHumanists and the Humanist Chaplaincy at Harvard and MIT. Darwin Day is a major Humanist and secular community holiday “celebrating the principles of intellectual bravery\, perpetual curiosity\, scientific thinking\, and hunger for truth as embodied in Charles Darwin.” \nAndrew Berry’s lecture is fully titled: “Coincidence? Charles Darwin\, Alfred Russel Wallace\, and What Their Discovery of The Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection Can Tell Us about How Science Works.” \nNatural selection is a simple idea\, and a long sought one\, but it wasn’t until 1858 that it was first unveiled. Curiously\, it was discovered not once\, but twice — by Charles Darwin and by Alfred Russel Wallace — suggesting that the milieu in which Darwin and Wallace were working made the idea particularly accessible. \nThis talk will first\, explore that milieu to identify its key components; 2nd\, examine the events that brought the trajectories of Wallace and Darwin together in 1858; and 3rd\, track their agreements and disagreements as the new science of evolution unfolded. The Darwin-Wallace story illustrates how science profits when critique and respect go together. \nDr. Andrew Berry is Assistant Head Tutor\, Integrative Biology\, and Lecturer on Organismic and Evolutionary Biology at Harvard. His research combined the techniques of field biology with those of molecular biology to seek evidence at the DNA level of Darwinian natural selection. He has given lectures on evolutionary topics to popular audiences all over the world – from Ankara to the Antarctic – occasionally drawing the ire of creationists. As an educator and popularizer\, Dr Berry seeks to demystify the most important and most misinterpreted of all biological ideas: evolution. \nJoin us for a lecture and snacks as we celebrate together in community of secular humanism!

SUMMARY:The hybrid in your genome: How recent advances in behavior and genetics are changing our view of Darwinian evolution
DESCRIPTION:Where do new species come from? Darwin proposed that the diversity of life could be explained when population divisions become magnified into new species over time. This “tree of life” thinking became our foundational metaphor for the natural world. Hybridization –– mating between species –– undercuts “tree thinking.” Until recently\, this phenomenon was regarded as an evolutionary dead end and ignored. However\, new data from diverse fields point to an inescapable conclusion: hybridization is common and can significantly impact living things (including our species!). So\, we will celebrate Darwin’s birthday by asking whether Darwin’s tree still adequately represents life’s diversity or if a new metaphor is needed.

SUMMARY:Darwin Day with Nick Schweitzer - Evolution in the Courts
DESCRIPTION:This will be our annual Darwin Day meeting. Refreshments will be served. Save room for dessert! \nPresentation:\nNick will speak on the history of challenges in state and federal courts to the teaching of evolution in public schools starting with the Scopes trial in 1925\, and the adaptation (evolution) of those challenges to the changing environment imposed over time by the courts\, from Biblical Creationism to Intelligent Design\, and possibly beyond. \nBio:\nJohn Nicholas (“Nick”) Schweitzer is a retired attorney living in Madison\, Wisconsin. His legal field was professional ethics\, serving as an administrative law judge for the state agency that issued and regulated licenses for scores of professions. He also taught legal ethics as an adjunct professor at the University of Wisconsin – Madison and conducted attorney discipline hearings for the Wisconsin Supreme Court.\nUtterly unrelated to that professional focus\, he fancies himself an “amateur scientist\,” promoting science and reason in various ways. \nHow to join us:\nGuests are welcome to join us via Zoom or in-person at:\nThe UU Church of Worcester\n90 Holden Street\nWorcester\, Massachusetts 01606 \nJoin us in person at 6:30 for our Darwin Day refreshments and fellowship. \nThe presentation will begin at 7:00.

SUMMARY:Il mondo in cui Darwin ci ha introdotto
DESCRIPTION:prof. Antonello La Vergata\ngià professore ordinario di Storia della filosofia nel Dipartimento di Storia\, Culture\, Civiltà Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia\nintroduce il prof. Claudio Casali \n[…] Questo mondo in cui Darwin ci ha introdotto è certamente assai diverso da quello della superstizione più evoluta. Nel mondo di Darwin l’uomo non ricopre che il ruolo che gli deriva dall’esser definito come una specie distinta di animale\, ed è parte della natura nel senso più completo. Egli è simile\, non in senso figurato\, ma letteralmente\, ad ogni altro essere vivente\, sia esso un’ameba\, una tenia\, una mosca\, un’alga\, una quercia o una scimmia – anche se poi i gradi di parentela sono diversi e si possa sentire meno trasporto per cugini di quarantaduesimo grado come le tenie\, che per fratelli (in senso relativo\, si intende) come le scimmie. \nGeorge Gaylord Simpson “Evoluzione: una visione del mondo” Sansoni 1972
