Today is Darwin Day! 212 years ago, the father of the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection
Today is Darwin Day! 212 years ago, the father of the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection was born in Shrewsbury, to Robert Darwin, a physician, and Susannah Darwin. Thanks to his great passion for the Natural sciences, and unfortunately for his father’s ambitions, Charles dropped out of medical school to board on the Voyage that revolutionized biology for the next 190 years. It is, in my personal opinion, an understatement to say that Charles Darwin is the father of the modern biological sciences, and I believe that his birth is one of the central celebration in modern science.
