"Evolution in the New Millennium"
Seminar Series

This seminar series was initiated 140 years after the publication of Charles Darwin's 'On the Origin of Species', as the new millennium loomed large. One speaker is invited each year to present a talk that integrates recent developments in the field of evolutionary biology. This year's Evolution in the New Millennium Series seminar is funded by the Department of Biology and Campus Life Enrichment Committee (CLEC). Please contact Lorne Wolfe at wolfe@georgiasouthern.edu if you have any questions or comments about this series or web page.
