All welcome!
As always, the goal of UWW's
Darwin Day
is to show why evolution matters--specifically, to illustrate how
valuable Darwinian thinking can be in addressing
significant societal challenges, for example in medicine. Wisconsin
High School
Biology Teachers, Principals, Librarians
and PTO
members are warmly invited to attend; this year's talk is also likely
to
be of special interest to health
professionals.
For more information contact
Jeffrey S. McKinnon, Biological Sciences,
UW-Whitewater: mckinnoj@uww.edu
The
lecture is part of a coordinated Wisconsin Darwin Day outreach program,
also featuring events at UW-Madison and UW-Milwaukee (links below or
coming soon). We are building up to Darwin's 200th birthday in 2009
and a statewide celebration!
