Feb 13, 2024 · This paper serves the research community as a review of theoretical challenges (with occasional suggestions) in cultural evolutionary science across four domains: conceptual challenges; methodological issues, including modelling, experimentation and field studies; topical challenges; and implications and applications.
Oct 23, 2023 · We underscore these insights with contemporary case studies, including: how understanding the dynamics of evolutionary radiation relies on natural history data; methods for extracting novel data from museum specimens; insights provided by multi-decade natural history programs; and how natural history is the most logical venue for creating an ...
Sep 26, 2023 · The project-based activity presented here emphasizes the importance of using an integration of both student-centered and instructor-led techniques, as well as combining hypothetical scenarios with a case study to engage students in the scientific process.

In this chapter, you will learn about the theory of evolution, evidence for evolution, how evolution works, and the evolution of living organisms on Earth. Specifically, you will learn about: Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection and how he developed this theory.
Jan 1, 2023 · Genetic evidence and the hybrid phenotype in human evolution. In addition to phenotypic evidence, we also have considerable—and ever-growing—genetic evidence for hybridization between post-1 Ma lineages in human evolution, the period relevant to the origin of our species, H. sapiens.
