Louis Clark Vanuxem Lecture


The search for the origins of species has entailed a series of great adventures over the past 200 years. Biologist and author Sean B. Carroll will chronicle the exploits of a group of explorers who walked where no one had walked, saw what no one had seen, and thought what no one else had thought. Their achievements sparked a revolution that changed, profoundly and forever, our perception of the living world and our place within it.


Sean Carroll is Professor of Molecular Biology and Genetics, University of Wisconsin, and author of The Making of the Fittest.
