Join us for our annual Darwin Day meeting for a special presentation on the evolutionary theme!

We will be joined by Professor Darin Croft, who describes himself as a Paleomammalogist. Darin is an Associate Professor of Anatomy at the CWRU School of Medicine, and has a PhD in Vertebrate Paleontology.

Darin has done much research on the evolution of the mammals of South America. His presentation is titled The Paleobiology of a Late, Great Clade of South American Herbivores. Darin will touch on a variety of topics related to the evolution of South American mammals (and the properties of evolution itself), and will also be describing the biology of an extinct group known as "Notoungulates". He'll be more than happy to take questions after his presentation.

As usual, light refreshments will be served - along with Darwin's Birthday cake!

See you there! :)
