Whatever Happened To Darwin's Tree Of Life?
Seminar by Paul Nelson PhD.
Description:Throughout the 20th century, Darwin's picture of all organisms on Earth arising from a great Tree, with a single root, dominated biology. Within the past decade, however, a growing number of evolutionary biologists have announced that biology must "go beyond the doctrine of common descent" and that "the Tree of Life is dead." What discoveries motivate these claims? What are the consequences for the origins debate? In his talk, Dr. Nelson will review the genomic data fracturing the Tree of Life at its base, and what this means for the future of biology.
About the Speaker:Paul Nelson is a philosopher of biology who has been involved in the intelligent design debate internationally for over two decades. After receiving his B.A. in philosophy with a minor in evolutionary biology from the University of Pittsburgh, Nelson entered the University of Chicago, where he received his Ph.D. (1998) in the philosophy of biology and evolutionary theory. He is currently a Fellow of the Discovery Institute and Adjunct Professor in the Master of Arts Program in Science & Religion at Biola University.
