Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection revolutionized the scientific worldview. But how well are we doing at keeping those ideas alive today? In this anniversary seminar, I will argue that modern evolutionary theory has lost track of one of Darwin’s key ideas about adaptation, and invite you to rediscover it through a series of fun, interactive quizzes.
