Centre for Inquiry Canada | Evolutionary Imagery with T. Ryan Gregory @CentreforInquiryCanada | Uploaded July 2010 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Toronto. March 19, 2010. Visual metaphors have been used to convey evolutionary ideas since Darwin's time. Some of the earliest kinds of images are still in use, even though they may do more to distort than to illustrate actual evolutionary processes. This seminar explores two major evolutionary icons, the "Tree of Life" and "evolutionary line-ups", as they have been used in the past and how they must be interpreted today. Dr. T. Ryan Gregory completed his B.Sc. (Hons) at McMaster University in 1997 and earned his Ph.D. in evolutionary biology and zoology from the University of Guelph in 2002.
