Anti-science and creationist rhetoric, coming from organizations like the Discovery Institute, often paints Darwin as handmaiden to the Nazis and founder of racist biology. The eugenics movement of the early twentieth century is uncritically melded with Darwin's writings that touched on race...
Using a combination of evolutionary biology and virology, scientists at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center have traced the birth of the ability of some HIV-related viruses to defeat a newly discovered cellular-defense system in primates. The research, led by Michael Emerman, Ph.D., a member...
Living Dinosaurs: The Evolutionary History of Modern Birds is an academic anthology of key writing about bird evolution. There are two main things that distinguish this book: 1) It focuses on the fossil record (rather than genetics); and 2) It is primarily about the evolutionary context of...
I'm aware that homo-sapians could have offspring with homo-neanderthalensis, but could homo-sapians hypothetically have offspring with, say, homo-erectus or even homo-habilis? I know it could never have happened as only h. sapians and h. neanderthalensis ever occupied the same time and...

We were studying cells, so the trend should;d be described on a cellular level.
Please help if you can. :)

Can you imagine Stephen Jay Gould recast as a tall and lanky Jesuit priest who has an interest in evolution? Can you imagine someone actually attempting the famous experiment of getting a large number of chimpanzees at keyboards to see if you can get any Shakespeare? Eventually? (The experiment...
