Evolution in the News
Darwin Day Teachers Workshop
NESCent's annual Darwin Day Symposium will be held February 21, 2009. This year's theme is "Evolutionary Applications in Society" and we invite teachers to bring their students to learn more about how evolutionary research benefits everyone. NESCent is also offering a teachers workshop Saturday, February 14, to provide educators with materials to prepare students to get the most out of attending the symposium. Watch the NESCent website for more information. [ more ]
NESCent's Education and Outreach Group is committed to sharing the exciting evolutionary biology research occurring here and elsewhere. In addition, we are interested in outreach to groups who are underrepresented in evolutionary biology and improving evolution education. We offer resources for scientists, educators, and the general public that meet these goals.
