As we approach the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin, the originator of the modern theory of evolution, it is a rich time to take stock of how much we've learned since On the Origin of Species was published in 1859.
The University of Pennsylvania and Penn Museum, joined by major Philadelphia cultural organizations, come together to offer the public a year of special programs dedicated to the ever-evolving process of evolution.
