Theory of evolution isn't just a hair brained theory, says Dowell. The scientific method does not place theory in the bumbling beginnings of an experiment,. Rather, theory is the product of attested hypothesis. So you can think of it like queen hildegarde eats apal turnovers.
Celebrate your lucky mutations with an episode about natural selection, agonizing boat trips, redemption stories, olde timey inter-family marriages, how much money you can make playing videos games, finch beaks, whether or not cave men are kinda hot and how to live on a small island with your soulmate. Evolutionary biologist and the director of the Moore Lab of Zoology, John McCormack, chats about all things evolution and gives Alie a new appreciation for how genetic blips can be hidden strengths.
